New guy from Nebraska
on: February 13, 2010, 05:58:18 PM
A friendly hello to all, glad I found you guys here, lots of good info.  I think I actually know a few of you from the EDC, BF, CPF forums already.  I am 35 but just started carrying a multi about 3 years ago after getting tired of running for a pair of pliers or a screwdriver for about the 1000th time in my life  ::).   I've had a SOG powerlock, pocket plier, toolclip, Leatherman PST, supertool, blast, Freestyle, wave, charge, juice and recently got a SwissTool.  Sold off everything except the Charge, Wave (backup if I break the Charge someday) Juice S2, and Swisstool.  Now I'm trying to decide what to get for a real heavy duty tool, a SOG S60 2.0, a Surge, or just stick with my Swisstool.  Also eyeing the Spirit, though the Charge probably does a lot of what it would do.  I just got into SAKs recently and got a craftsman which I love.   :tool:   Anyway, hello to everyone  :)

Yep, I collect antique Marlin lever action rifles, the 1892, 1897, 1889, 1894 ect.  People always think it refers to Marlin the fish but nope, its Marlin the rifle company.  I have a weakness for old S&W's too, as you may have guessed from my avatar  :D   I've considered the supertool, but I don't know, it doesn't have scissors or a bit driver like the Surge does  :think:
