I bet you would enjoy it.  Ir's a great fiddle factor MT :). I know what you mean though.  It's hard to try to choose items to possibly trade/sell.

Hey Gabriel buddy :D  I've been enjoying my MP400.  The flicky pliers are fun, and the tools have served me just fine so far in my limited use.  As you said, it's no Rebar, especially in versatility.  However, I typically don't require much in my daily life, and most of that is covered by my Rogueneer. 

I'm excited to get my Flik, and it should arrive tomorrow morning.  I'll post my thoughts on that one after I've fiddled with it.  Do you have a Flik?  I would likely assume you do based on some of the hauls you've had in the past, and the fact you seem to be a Gerber fan ;)

Haha! Fun is the magic word...and speed. Man they sure deploy fast.

Yes I have a Gerber flik. I like it a lot. Especially since the tools are accessible from the outside even if it's a flicky. I ended up getting its bigger version - the Freehand as I have bigger hands that required a bit more real estate on the tool especially for extended use.  I'm happy for you with these 2 new exciting additions to your loadout. Let us know how the flik works for yah! Cheers!

It really is hard to choose!  I've only ever gotten rid of three tools.  Two Juices as I was tired of getting bit, and a Cybertool Lite.  The Cybertool was a great SAK, but I had no attachment to it, and I knew I'd never carry or use it.

I might have to look at what I have again and let the logical part of my brain pick something that I could possibly trade for one.
