Hello From North Carolina
on: September 15, 2014, 08:38:38 PM
Hello all..
I live in NC USA
Im a volunteer Technical Rescuer.
I work full time as a CSR for a paint company.
Ive owned and carried a leatherman wave for a year and just recently started to collect multitools.
I also love to buy old beat up multitools and restore then to good operating condition. :multi:

Don't worry about it, whenever she queries about your new found addiction, just keyword search 'Chako' in MT.O and show her any pictures related to that name.  You will be saved.  :D

welcome mate
Solving problems you didn't know you had in the most obscure way possible
