OK, so first off I would like to say that using plano boxes is a good way to keep your tools organized and they stack up nice.

[stack]

      These are my pocket survival tools. The one on the left is hollow screwed, has a drop point blade, no lanyard, inch ruler, no hard wire notch, no dates, left hand can opener, small hindge, and marked Leatherman Tool, US pat 4238862, Portland Or on one handle, Pocket survival tool on the other. The handles are plain on the back side. The blade tang says leatherman and I cant tell if it says USA on it. It also has a milled awl. The other two are the same except they have sollid knurled screws.

[stack]

Next is a tool I think from the mid 80's.     It has Leatherman tool, no pat, and portland or on one handle, the other plain. It has a drop point blade, inch ruler, left hand can opener, lanyard loop, leatherman USA on the knife tang, small plier hindge says leatherman and USA, and the back handles are plain.

[stack]

Next up is four japan leathermans          The one on the left is hollow riveted. It says Leatherman in large font, tool, US pat 4238862 on one handle, other handle plain, no portland or. It has a drop point blade, leatherman on knife tang, inch ruler, lanyard loop, back handles plain. Right hand can opener. I think most of the hollow riveted tools had left hand can openers. The second one is the same except the handle says US regd tm 1325473 and it has sollid rivets. The third is the same as the second one except the knife tang says leatherman japan. And the fourth one is the same as the third except the handle dropped the us and just says reg tn 1325473 and the knife tang says leatherman japan. The plier hindge just says leatherman on all four.

Well if I didnt bore you yet heres the next tool      This tool says leatherman tool, US pat 1325473, portland or. on one handle. The other handle is plain. The back handle says marlboro country store. This tool has a sabor blade, lanyard loop, right hand can opener,no hard wire notch, date code 0294 and o194, reg awl. small hindge says leatherman and USA, inch/metric ruler, sollid screwsand L shaped phillips and med screwdriver.
