What is the best MT of all time,only 1

Zed · **on:** January 17, 2010, 04:25:15 PM

so what is your favorite MT ,so far mine is the 98 LM wave but then so far i havnt much much to compare it against other than my kick, for me this MT has had everything i need ,is a nice classic design,not to bulky,

so what is yours any why,

my wave since 98

The pre 04 wave would be in contention . A real Icon . I think it would be easier to pick the top 3 or top 5 .

ok chris the top 5

Pre 04 Wave , Original PST , Charge , Swisstool , Spirit , in no particular order . If you broaden your deffinition to include SAK's , the Vic. Spartan would have to be in there somewhere . In some ways it helped start the ball rooling .

thought you had chris

if one and i had to buy another the OR wave as mine has lasted 12 hard years and still looks pretty good,

ok to make this different you can only have 1 MT or SAK

mine is the OR wave

If forced to pick one at gunpoint , it would be the Vic. Spartan - the grandaddy of them all .

Dunc,

That made me laugh so hard! Ahhhh........LM123....We had many laughs at his expense.

For me it's the Leatherman Charge TTi.

TangoDown · **Reply #14 on:** January 17, 2010, 06:20:41 PM

It's the Spirit for me.

My vote would be for the Spirit for looks/functionality and the Spyderench for all out craziness.

Gadget Guy · **Reply #18 on:** January 17, 2010, 06:35:10 PM

Easy choice, the spirit.

I've owned a bunch of multi's and for my needs the spirit does everything I could want from a multi, and it looks sexy too!

glorn · **Reply #19 on:** January 17, 2010, 06:44:13 PM

On a desert island? Only one MT... hmmmm...

So I'll go ahead and assume I can have a fixed blade. Which leaves me torn between a kukri and a dive knife.

But as for the one MT on a desert island, I might go with this:

Cracking coconuts, building a hut for Ginger and I, perhaps a raft.. I think this and a good fixed blade would be just the ticket.

John · **Reply #20 on:** January 17, 2010, 07:23:45 PM

Another vote for the spirit

But a close second as it made me laugh for days the CAK!

well it deserves a mention just for that

you could say it's the worst MT of all time oh wait that's another thread maybe

On a desert Island , the Spirit , honorable mention to the Farmer .

Chris

Benner · **Reply #23 on:** January 17, 2010, 07:57:01 PM

I'd take the bigger bro over the Spirit any day

And no that isn't necessarily my choice.

Zed · **Reply #24 on:** January 17, 2010, 08:00:48 PM

I think this is the point ,say war broke out and you had to grab just 1 MT , for me at the moment its easy as it would be my wave any day, but give me by the end of the year and possibly i might find this a harder decision like alot of you guys,

paul

Gareth · **Reply #25 on:** January 17, 2010, 08:01:46 PM

I don't know if it's the best (I haven't tried everything

) but I know what my favourite multi is: The Pulse. Small size, great selection of tools, solid locks, comfortable to grip....

If we include SAKs then it might be the Vic Huntsman.

Styerman · **Reply #26 on:** January 17, 2010, 08:05:22 PM

A Huntsman or a Ranger would stand you in good stead on a desert island .

If you put it like that I'd go for the Swisstool, or the Charge if I wanted to travel a bit lighter.
