Jeez,

Settle pettles. The rules state that you can use other proper tools, and if you have to resort to a bigger multi tool, fess up and be honest and retire then. No need to not have a crack, see how you fare, need to be in it to win it.

I say wear the tread and if you use it, tell everyone, just be honest. Easier if you didn't wear it though, as then you would only be able to tackle what you may need to with the Squirt

Using another tool doesn't mean you have to retire.

The purpose of these Challenges is to test the capabilities of those tools... Just report back like:

Hammering a 9 inch-nail in proofed to be too much for my Squirt so I had to use my Tread... :rofl:

Seriously, try out how much you can do with the Squirt. The test is to see where the Squirt failed and not where you failed at doing your job. And if all goes well, you will have a new appreciation for that tiny tool, realizing its much more capable than one would expect from such a lightweight.
If you are still in for the prize that's Kampfers decision but you should anyway participate for the fun of it, not the prize.
It wouldn't be the internet without people complaining.

I'll do a picture later, but, yeah, Im down for this.

I have about half a dozen squirts, so this shouldnt be an issue!
Hopefully you'll do a Style/CS/PS Challenge sometime too!

Cool idea, will be hard, but will actually work out nicely for me as Im a teacher and will be in school then

Not gonna happen.  I've been known to use three multitools at once, so one Es4 just won't cut it.  Ya'll enjoy the challenge.

Man up or bow out?  Getting a little too serious here, I think...

Not serious at all. Just a friendly little trash-talking.  ;)

Ok, Im in!
...but which to do?




(thought I had one or two more Squirts... I must be slacking)


Leaning towards the black PS4 or the blue E4.
PS4 has scissors, but E4 has proper phillips head and tweezers.

Hey Kampfer,

Stop messing with my life  :pok:
I am not sure I have forgiven you for depriving me of my beloved SAK for Chrissy present opening on 25/12 last year  :twak:

However it was fun - it felt great having the Skelly in my pocket
- Me and Skelly survived the challenge
- and to my great surprise I even edc'd Skelly after the challenge.

So Squirt is tempting
if a pic of a blue ps4 appears in the next few days ...... I'm in!!  8)

Don't enter me in the list, I just wanna be in the challenge to show how capable the S4 is. It's not much of a challenge because it's mostly all I carry anyway when I'm out and about, but it's a very capable and compact tool that is up to most tasks.

september is coming, but I've already been carrying just my squirt the past week.
I've mostly filed my nails, opened beer bottles and, yesterday, cut a cigar.

see you in September! ;)

Considering the fact that I just broke my Suspension yesterday, I don't really have an excuse not to join this challenge - not gonna start carrying an MP600 to work everyday, when there's this little thing going on.

Yep, I also put mine in my pocket :D I don't have a real need for a MT, so the  PS4 for a month will be no problem, I think.

Lets do this.  I don't really need more than a PS4 in my pocket.  Its just that I want more.  So that's the challenge for me.

So Squirt is tempting
if a pic of a blue ps4 appears in the next few days ...... I'm in!!  8)


Ha Ha !!  TR ............. You got me there - I guess that means I am in ....  :D

However I quote rule three of the competition to you:
" 3) Reply to this thread with a photo of your Leatherman SQUIRT® - you will be participating the challenge ....."

I believe that is a photo of a Squirt in a reply from you - Therefore I declare you in the Challenge - And have updated the list accordingly  :o  :cheers:

Don't enter me in the list, I just wanna be in the challenge to show how capable the S4 is. It's not much of a challenge because it's mostly all I carry anyway when I'm out and about, but it's a very capable and compact tool that is up to most tasks.

Dear Bounding Star (better not abbreviate your name as I did for TR!!)

So by rule three again - I believe that you need to be on the list too - as you are partaking in the challenge - So I have added you too - Subject to Kampfer's approval. I added 'no GAW' after your name - Is that correct?


Kamfer - I have a couple of queries on the rules.....
One of my most used tools is a toothpick - Which of course the Squirt has not!
I think popping a Vic Classic in my pocket for the tp would clearly be a fail in the Challenge -

Q1. But what if I just carried a Vic tp  ??? - Or does that count as using a multitool ?? - If so I can pop along to the chemist and get a pack of tps!! (ie regular tools!!)

Q2. Does fiddling with another multitool in September count as a fail in the challenge?? - I think it should - As sadly, for me, (and apparently - many of us here!!), this seems to be one of our main uses of an MT!! So would have to be excluded!
I would request one exclusion to this - If you buy or aquire an MT during September - You are at least allowed to check it out!

Anyway here is another pic of a Squirt ...... Also in the shot ...... What it will be replacing during September.

I already know of three issues I will have with the Squirt - You already know of one - I will save the others for the feedback/progress thread.  :tu:

But I am looking forward to it and feeling positive ...  8)

Thanks No. 00
