Ive gotten my Spirit
on: August 11, 2009, 02:30:44 AM
Yes it has arrived. I recieved it on Saturday. Today has been my all day to carry it. So far 14 hours on me and no complaints what so ever. I am liking the outside opening tools and the feel of how the tools "snap" in and out. The lock is a different animal getting used but I like it. I also like how the pliers "snap" in place when I open them. I have only used it once today but I think I might have found a keeper.

Fit and finish are tops and the sheath looks good as well.

My only issue with Victorinox MTs…they have a super polished finish that requires a bit of time to buff them when taking their pictures because they are fingerprint magnets..

mine is BO and it has many scratches after a short time of use... so be it. put that thing to work and make it earn it's keep. it will put those LM's to shame in short order. all other MT's become obsolete once you have the spirit.

I owned a stainless Spirit and currently own a BO Spirit.  Great tool that packs a LOT of quality tools in a small and relitively light package. 

It's the most comfortable multi I've ever handled.

Why do I carry a 45 ?
Because they don't make a 46 !

What a typical collectors comment.  :D  Nothing about how it functions, only about how it looks.  :D
