Question guys? Are either the Wingman and/or the Sidekick able to use the LM Bit Adapter or bit extension with the Phillips driver? Thanks!

I think the Wingman is excellent, in fact it is almost ready to be my alternate (pocket carry) EDC.  The only thing I don't like about is the combo edge blade.

Now I need a sidekick so I can swap the plain edge blade in.  I really, really, really dislike combo edge blades.

Have a Wingman, probably one of the first sold from Moontrail.

As of today, I have both of them.  I bought two Wingman's last week from Home Depot.  The Sidekick I had to order.  The Sidekick came today and it has the leather pouch/sheath and the carabiner.  The Wingman just came by itself.  The Wingman was a much better deal at $25 @ HD.  I had to order the Sidekick online and including shipping the best price was @ L.L. Bean for $45.  The Wingman suits my EDC needs better.  The perfect lineup for me would be substituting the wood saw on the Sidekick for the scissors on the Wingman.  And substitute the can/bottle opener with the Package opener.   :tu:   :D

Got my Wingman and my Sidekick from Amazon last week Friday and I still haven't taken them off my belt. :drool: I use the Caribiner for my keys. Love em both to death. Currently using new nylon Leatherman sheaths to protect them both. I usually have so much garbage in my pockets  that will scratch them up. :climber:

I finally got my Wingman yesterday from Home Depot. While I am not overly impressed from my first impressions if it performs well I think we have a winner.  :tu:

Really?  Even for $25?  I got the Sidekick too but had to order it online and it cost $45.  I'm not impressed by the wood saw on the Sidekick but really like the scissors on the Wingman.  If I could have bought the Sidekick for $25 I would be more impressed with it.  But for me, the tool lineup and price of the Wingman is impressive.  :tu:
