Snipped some of those irritating plastic ties they use for fastening kids' toys to te packaging (in this case some plastic shoes) withthe Charge scissors. I also impaled a fly with the awl on a PST. It was asking for it.
I used to come here a lot.

I need to contribute to this thread more.


I use my multitool often at work for everything from hooking up electric and water to wood work.

I carry a Swiss tool RS the most but I like using all my tools so now and the Il take something different for fun .

I also swap out tools when I get home from work to a juice or other mid size tool. I try not to use it. Lol

Il try post here more.

I don't think I could do my job without my multitool.

I had to fix my belt today.  The leather inside the end of the belt buckle had worn over time and finally the screws holding that connection wore through that leather.  I used the PSTII's small screwdriver to remove the screws and the scissors to cut off the worn out end of the leather and shape it to fit in the end of the buckle.  I then used the awl (best awl ever :tu:)on my Alox Pioneer to work out the holes in the leather for the screws.  Then I screwed them back in and will just have to use the awl to make a new hole now that the belt is a bit shorter.

No pics?

I wish.  I've had issues trying to post pics in the past.  My computer is over 10 years old and takes forever to do anything of that nature. :-[  I've heard that Tapatalk app remedies this, but I don't have a smartphone (wife does) and won't for a few more months at least.  Also, that app isn't free from what I've found, so if there is a free app that helps with the pic posting on this forum, please enlighten me anyone (PLEEEAAASE!).  I'm so tired of not being able to post pics :rant:  Of course the wife might look at me funny if she sees me taking pics of my MTs/SAKs in action ::)
