I'm not sure it was Alzheimers, it was probably joining Multitool.org that started the mental deterioration!   :think:

Or was it my mental derangement that led me to join Multitool.org? :think: 

Sounds like another one of those chicken-or-the-egg questions :D
In order to be certain of having the right tool for every job.........one must first acquire a lot of tools

Dinosaurs and insects were laying eggs long before anything even remotely resembling a chicken existed.

You know, just in case you were wondering....

So, with that in mind, these must be the worst scissors Fiskars ever sold. :D

At the time Fiskars probably hadn't planned to include their scissors into Gerber tools.  They were probably more interested in the knife side of things since there really wasn't much of a multitool market at the time.  I imagine many multitools being released at the time were low cost, low development budget offerings to test the waters on a new fad.
