I can finally post in the SAK threads! (I've had a Wenger, prior.)

But I got my first SAK. An electrician. Really pretty jazzed with it. It is so light and easy to carry, I will be able to take this everywhere. It's going to make a good addition to an EDC and pliered multis. Glad to have the 2 blades and of course the awl in this slim streamlined package! I gotta admit, it feels good  :tu:

Thanks. I deal a lot with cables and wire management. And also spend a fair amount of time un-boxing new gear for clients. So I'll put that small electricians blade to work for sure.

I probably would have bought the duo, for the added saw. But most all my leathermans have one. Plus this smaller 2 layer feels daaaaamn good compared to everything else I have!  ;) (I have drywall saws anyways, that I'm gonna use 99% of the time anyway  :D )

You made the right choice I think. When I compare my Electrician with my Farmer I must admit the Farmer feels a lot bulkier when carried in my pocket. That one extra layer makes all the difference!

By the way: you probably mean the Plus, the Duo is that overpriced but gorgeous knife with three blades ;)

Duo, plus. I've been looking so much this last week. My brains like  :think: I actually like all three of those models.

I could see how these are fun to try all the different models, so much variety. I like my decision. I'm eager to put it to work.

The PX-D is still my latest one, and this is what I did to it!  :ahhh

Not hard to do (apart from the decision to do it), but probably devalued it somewhat, which is ok because I'm going to carry it, in fact I started today.  :)
