Greetings from Portland, OR!
on: December 08, 2014, 02:42:00 AM
Hey all, my name is Josh, I'm from Portland, Oregon (home of Leatherman!), and just joined up today.  Just thought I'd introduce myself.  I've got a small but decent collection of Leatherman multitools (Wave, Juice CS4, Crater C33Tx, Style CS, Squirt PS4, and a Skeletool).  I'm also a bit of a flashlight and pocket knife collector, so this seems like a good place to check things out. 

- Josh

Haven't picked up a Gerber yet, I'm curious to check them out.  I have a Kershaw I really like and need to get sharpened, I'm anxious to go by and have it done, and maybe go on a tour.

They probably will be of me, soon enough.  I'm actually an employee of Leatherman, I just work in shipping/logistics though, not in the actual production facility, they're about 1.5 or so miles down the road from each other.

Shoot, I almost forgot to add the current crown jewel of my Leatherman collection, my original Supertool (1995) that my father-in-law gave me a few months ago, with the original leather sheath.  I'll get a picture once I get my phone back.
