It's been a while, Mr. Pinchy. It's been a while
on: September 03, 2015, 08:35:32 PM
Welp, I can finally get a badge I've been waiting for, though with some nervous tension. In the end, it wasn't the most fun, but hey, new badge :D

Adjusting the tension on my PST II, and as we all know, the knutled screws are rather low profile, and prone to slipping off  ::)

This is my beater pinchy, my original's handles don't touch, is held by a small spring tension when closed, so it's less rattle-y, and the plier head is milled, and has a rather uncommon profile.

Pics of the bite, the original pinchy, and the milled plier head :D

It is embarrassing, but I once got a pretty bad pinch from the two scales coming together on my Gerber Dime. I wasn't careful and it pinched my palm pretty badly.

That's why I keep all of mine in my collection and just stick to Leatherman's :D

Those original Multi-Pliers are built like tanks and displayed the great design and manufacturing capabilities of Gerber, back in the 90's. They have since strayed far from that over the past 10 or 15 years. Cool piece!
