That does look good - but what's going off at the base of that serrated blade  :think:

correct! I damaged the point, and had to make a new one. I think it came out good.

I'm sure most of us have them, the tool that gets used often, doesn't get cleaned before
getting shoved away in a toolbox, tacklebox, garage, etc.
I have such a tool, and it goes out with me twice a week at least, into the forest where I
harvest quite a bit of wood for walking sticks, canes, slingshots.

The Coughlan's Sierra folding saw is amazing!  This wood lot you see here, 90 percent of
it was taken with this saw.  The only other saw I've had was a Gerber, and it cut through
green wood slightly faster than the Coughlan's but unfortunately I broke the
blade on two different occasions and had to return it (lifetime warranty).

I highly recommend this saw if you need one to stow away in your vehicle or bushcraft
etc.  Here I have included a few photo's of it.   :)

Leatherman P4 Squirt and Gerber Clutch both went to duty on my keychain for a while.  Currently using the Gerber Clutch since the Squirt's knife tip broke (dont pry with knives!)

Wow thanks for all the warm welcomes!

Surprisingly I prefer the clutch. Very similar multi-tools but I like the setup of the clutch and the large knife blade.

If you send that Squirt to the Leatherman Warranty Department they will either fix it or replace it with a new one.   All it will cost you is postage on way.

ive only used a squirt and fink there great. i curently have a micra on my keys because scissors get more use with me. the only reason i didnt get a clutch was because of size. my keys are already rather cluttered. im going to get one soon tho and see how they do.
