Thanks Gareth,So what colour are you getting? none yet, I'm totally brassic right now. .. or simply not inebriated enough last time you went online browsing When you have trouble holding your head up and start inadvertently typing with your face, that's a good time to keep away from Amazon etc ... or at least that's the conclusion I came to after buying another CS4 I'm very glad I took the plunge on the Balance though. It's one I had been talking myself out of for a while. Getting this and selling some other stuff was for sure the right move - though I didn't necessarily do those two in the right order

I'm not even drunk, not unless you can get pissed on coffee....can you?
I'm led to believe there's another Gerber fan signed up for one of these, and looking forward to their thoughts on it too
I think that just leaves Mercury and Kirky to pull their fingers out and go get one and then all the enlightened Gerberites on here will be good to go Have we missed anyone that needs a ?
GET THEE BEHIND ME SATAN!
In fairness the thing thats been holding me back is the bit drivers!At work I'm very philips dependant,and I nee drivers with a fair reach as most of the screws I encounter are recessed(hence I NEEDED to back up my superduper Wave2 with my PST/SAK ).The Bit drivers here look very much like that of the Cybertool,which,for me suffers the same problem as the Wave.

Yeah, it's all Al's fault. He made us do it.

It isn't because it's not good enough....honest. Seriously; we have a good few things to go up and I believe this is one of them.

Seriously; we have a good few things to go up and I believe this is one of them.While i have not yet gotten one, i had the chance to visit my brother and he bought a balance as his very first MT. I am very impressed with it's build and profile. In fact, if you just gave it a good flik, the plier heads can be deployed in the said fashion. Definitely one MT worth the price and the effort!. And those scissors, man are they good.

And those scissors, man are they good.You know where this post is going, right Gabriel? I think the Balance is a great pocket tool. It sees a lot of carry and use by me. My brother also recently got his first real MT, and it was a Balance. Wonder where he got that idea from?
