Swiss Tech Tools

I have become fond of the Swiss Tech tools.  I found a few at the fleamarket  and bought them and it seems I keep stumbling upon them and buying them  :facepalm:.

Cool K, the shipping rates to NZ are a joy-killer, though.
Let's see what you come up with first, cheers!

Got that one, too. For me, it's better than this new one. This is a beast! Not so portable as the 19.

Thanks for getting one for me too, K...much appreciated! The generosity of some people on this forum never cease to amaze me  :tu:

And the 3-piece Swss+Tech gift package from Kampfer just arrived in New Zealand!  :mail:   This is like early Christmas present :)

Thanks brother for all your effort and $$ spent, I owe you a big one.  :salute: :tu:

The trio:


The "thing" is a Monster!!!  It's called "Micro-Max Xtreme" and it boasts no less than 22 tools. See how it dwarfs a 4-inch MT like LM Sideclip  :o


The Transformers have just accepted a new member of the team


Get it while you still can, I'm loving mine  :tu:

It has potential for EDC although a little on heavy side. The thing is a big chunk of S/S...as I'm sure you know already, it's very well made and all the tools work as described. For now I will keep it in my car's glove box. Wish they included a lanyard hole but that's no showstopper.

Thanks again!

The other two are also cool tools but the "Monster" takes the cake :-)

BTW, the S+T web site shows all three are brand new tools, but I believe the 3-pack is exclusive to Costco.

Good luck hunting!
