Hello all, maybe not the intro area, but the Leatherman section will be where I will post the most I imagine so I thought this would be best.  Anyway, I have not the collection that some here have (I have read a LOT of the threads in this section.....probably too many...)
Since last Christmas, I carry the Charge ALX everyday (I'm maintenance!) and have just recently added a micra to the side elastic pocket. (I found out I need scissors!)  I am also hoping to get the Serac 3 (I'm not a Leatherman snob, they just make a FINE product, plus I would look SO cool flipping out the aluminum brothers to fix a dark problem).  I'm also interested in the Charge SLV, (its different, so everytime I would pull it out I would show up even the trades workers at my job site) so if you ever see one for sale... (I think I have seen all of them in the collections posted here  :D) I have a few other questions but they will wait until I get accepted...

Here's proof I own the Charge ALX

Nice story. We have a couple other guys published theirs on leatherman's website, maybe we should make a new thread to collect member's published story.  :)

You can still get charge SLV on costco's website, pretty $$$ thou.

Welcome to MTO!  :cheers:

Since you like the Charge ALX, why not get a Charge AL? That would solve your scissor problem.  :tu:
Sometimes change is a good thing, other times not so much!

Oh geez, I KNEW this would happen. Now I know where to get the SLV, and I am being recommended to get the AL, AND I am threatened to end up in other forums too.  You guys are going to make me blow my life savings on multi tools, aren't you? I can't afford to collect! unless...

Thanks for the warm welcome, and yes we did get some fish that weekend.  Not as many as usual there, but still a few.
