LM Kick with metal saw

[Sjoqvist]

Hello multitoolers

I'm new to this forum, and I thought it would be fun to dedicate my first post to my favorite multitool, my modded LM Kick.

I used to carry my LM Juice S2 every day for a long time, but I always felt I needed a bigger set of pliers and a metal file. I do not like to carry heavy MTs like a LM Charge etc, so I had to come up with another solution.

This thread gave me the perfect idea: http://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,1509.0.html
I also realized that it was possible to add a modded hacksaw blade on the "knife side" as the knife blade is slightly thinner than the metal file from my LM blast(which I put on the other side). I also removed the lanyard ring and the can/bottle opener since I do not really need them and added the scissors from my Blast.

Everything (including the hacksaw blade) stay in place very well when opened and I am pretty satisfied with my mods so far. The whole tool weighs 165g (5.8oz).

I also apologize for the bad pictures (I am a bad photographer )

Nice work mate  .
Thanks for sharing

very cool mate, you should add a clip as makes the kick a even handy ligthweight pocket carry,

I had thoughts about that, but at the moment I carry it deep down in my pocket, and it does not move around much as I have alot of other crap there too
Another idea I had was to replace the pivot screws with something similar with hex type head instead and "smoother" edges on the head so it does not catch my pocket every time I put it down there I do not know where to find one of those with the right pivot size though.
Anyways, thanks for the feedback guys!

That's pretty I've just today added the pocket clip

Good news guys! I have maybe found a way to make the Kick the ultimate full size lightweight MT

If I replace the plastic handle inserts with something thinner and add more washers next to the pliers, there is just enough place to add two more "full size" tools 

If I drill a few holes in the handles I could maybe keep it under 6oz and replace the small blade with the bigger blade from the Blast and a wood saw or something like that on the other side

Have anyone tried this by the way?
