Hi from Alabama
on: July 02, 2009, 05:41:26 PM
I've posted one or two times but am finally getting around to typing up my formal intro. 

Hi, I'm Martin (aka 82brutus) and I'm hooked on multitools, SAKs, sharp pointy things, etc. 

So far, the  :multi: collection consists of: 

LM Blast, Skeletool CX, Micra, Squirt P4
Swisstool and about ~30 SAKs. 

I've read a lot of helpful and wallet deflating posts.  This has been a great place for information and a great place to share in the insanity of collecting.  I appreciate it all.

Thanks,
Martin
