I just think you have finally seen the light mate. The Spirit may look good to carry around, but when it comes to actual use, Leatherman is always the winner for me.

Leathermans may not be as polished or as neatly made, but I just find as tools they work better (for me anyway), and that goes for most of the implements. When I know I've got a lot of work to do, I always go Leatherman.Sorry Vic guys.
Don't worry Aaron, it's just a phase, you'll get over it, hopefully before the Kick rusts away

Happily I like both makes and can relate to a more minimal carry so I know exactly where you are coming from. Carry the Kick without guilt, sooner or later you'll want to carry the Spirit again and that'll be fine too. Frankly I'll never settle on just one SAK or Multi, it's the swapping things around that keeps it interesting for me. I can barely go a day without changing my carry, sometimes less.

When I am at home, my carry can sometimes vary hourly.
I tend to swap between both Vic and Leatherman . Its a bit like YIN YANG . For me I can't have one without the other . I have my favourites in both brands .But more importantly I can see both the short falls and plus sides of both .Dunc

If Vic just changed their drivers slightly though, for me their would be no contest!
That's funny, I like the Vic plier head as it is But the drivers could be improved with so little effort.
