Where have I been?

[ari6126]

I've been off the forum for a while moving into college. Well I'm all settled, so I should have a little more time to waste relax here. In a multitool related story, I lost my Charge SLV. Either it was stolen out of my bag, or I misplaced it somewhere. The whole thing, including a Pocketwrench and bit card is gone. So I'm completely multitool free. I still have my SAKs though (Yeoman, DPx, TechCadet, and Rambler). I have something coming to replace it, and it's European. (The regulars here will know what that means. I'll let them guess the model.) I'm still available to ship overseas if people need it. Also, I will be posting a SAK for sale soon, it's a nice piece. I'm in Atlanta now, if that means anything to anyone.
So any big multitool news while I was gone?

Victorinox and Wenger went belly up!

Leatherman has dropped its multitool line to pursue knives, SAK-styled tools, and flashlights!

Gerber has stepped in to fill the gap and is now the major manufacturer for multitools (they outsourced from China to India to pick up the slack)!

Bear and Son is still doing whatever the heck it is they do.

EDIT: This was my 4,000th post.

Congrats on your 4000th post. So I'm guessing no 111mm plus scales or OH Spirits? What other holy grails have we been waiting for?

No plus scales, but they are doing those wonky dual density scales if you haven't heard? No manufactured OH Spirits but Jsews finished his.

I own a Dual Pro X, those happened before I left. I saw the Jsews masterpiece, I might have cried.
