Finally Here
on: September 13, 2007, 04:58:59 PM
Well after a few finanacial disasters which got in the way I finally managed to scrape the cash together for my first Swiss tool and it arrived today!
First order of business was to test the serrated edge on some cardboard boxes Woohoo it went through them like the proverbial hot knife through butter
Second I tested the saw blade on a branch about 1 1/2 inches thick again fantastic results
For my next trick I will finally put up the new gate that was supposed to be done ages ago .No more excuses I ahve some time off and she who must be obeyed  >:Dis getting stroppy
I will post pictures of the end result

I don't think there's a finer multitool to help around the house than the SwissTool!  It's got a doodad or gizmo for everything!

And, I guarantee you'll quit long before it does!

Nothing instills confidence like having a tool you know you can depend on. Dunc will be along shortly to give you an "attaboy" or a "what took you so long" :cheers:

The answer is yes my opinion has changed I love even more  :grin: I am rapidly developing an obsession I have even considered taking it to work with me the only snag is SWMBO loves and has even used it for the odd task around the house
I am considering getting her a Spirit for Christmas but that may not be too good an idea!
