I have slowed down my MT collecting somewhat, but I am still adding a few pieces here and there. Here are the latest additions, both from fellow MT.O members and eBay.
A FlipGrip Dual Jaw Multi-tool.I have wanted one of these ever since I came across it on the internet. Unfortunately, this is a very hard to get MT up here in Canada. No clue why, but it just was. I got this one off of a fellow member.
(To lock the tool in position, you have to slide the metal plate out…the one covered in the bright orange sticker. The needle nose pliers have to be inside the tool also, as the metal plate hooks around them.)
(The metal locking plate is now released. The FlipGrip is spring loaded.)
(The tools are not the best quality, but not all that bad either. )
(The other handle only has a bit driver.)
(The handles flip around, giving you a choice between needle nose pliers, or blunt.)
(Flip the handles, and you now have a nice needle nose.)
The Fast and Furious Stanley Mini SwitchpliersStanley tool have this little mini SOG Switchplier that I have been hunting for quite some time. For some reason, they are very hard to get up here just like the FlipGrip. Anyhow, I jumped at the chance at these once I was offered them.
(These come in a nice branded hard plastic case with a nylon/Velcro belt loop on the back.)
(The tools are nice, and both feature a different graphic on the handles.)
(For a size comparison, a SOG Switchplier was added.)
(I have no clue if these are made by SOG, licensed from SOG, or copied/stolen from SOG. What I do know is that these little guys are very high in the cute scale.)
Spyderco Spyder/Byrd WrenchI figured it was time to get a Byrdwrench to go along with the Spyderwrench.
(Byrd on the left, Spider on the right.)
(Byrd on the left, Spider on the right.)
(The Byrdwrench has a rain drop knife blade cut out, and the Spyderwrench is circular.)
(The flip side.)
(Both tools can come apart. Here we have just the knife side. On the tail end.)
(Both sides removed from each other.)
(A difference between them is the removable tool. The Spiderwrench comes with a diamond file with a Phillips on one end. The Byrdwrench comes with a wood rasp.)
Al Mar Quickclip 2004 Model IVMy first Al Mar. I can see why these are highly sought after, as they do exude quality.
(The box.)
(Model sticker.)
(Showing the clip side.)
(Reverse side.)
(Jaws in action.)
(The knife is very nice.)
Some close-ups.
Buck Twin Peaks KnifeVery similar to the X-Tract family, except it has no pliers.
