I am up to 22 different models now and counting (I have a few more on their way). I just noticed today that my two MPT tools are different. Take a close look at the length of the tool locks on the handle. The painted MPT is much shorter.

I picked the last in-stock Curve at Sports Authority this past weekend.

Cute litle bugger, opens a beer bottle with no problems, Sam Adams Nobel Pils was good too. :cheers:

That's just outstanding... I'd stare at that drawer all day and probably end up dismantling my car just to use them all.

I have a really big soft spot for Gerbers, their designs just kind of grow on me.

We are very lucky indeed to have members like you on this forum.

Nope, it just likes to hide out with it's own kind I guess!  :D

There are 3 tools in there that aren't Gerbers...the Paul Chen, the Winchester Fisherman, and the Carolina Knife and Tools model. They hang out with the rest because of the Gerber influences.
