My girls threw in together and got me a Black & Decker SPT 100. ::) (this thing has surely got to be the stooooopidest contraption ever made!) :P

But I won't tell them that of course. ;)

You have to give them 10/10 for trying  :tu: Dad loves his multitools, perhaps if we get him this he can get rid of those old tools from the olden days  :D At least they went for a brand you can trust; just a shame the brand let them down  ::)

Doesn't appear to be available in the UK, wonder why?  :think:

Put it this way: The SPT 100 ranked #5 in Popular Mechanics Top Ten Worst Gadgets of the Year awards. :P :P


"This tool exists in a kind of twilight zone and can only be explained as the ultimate bait-and-switch: You buy it as a gift for someone who either is handy or seems like it, and while he or she surely accepts it graciously, the chances of them ever using it are virtually nil. Still, it's the thought that counts, right?"

Still, I think the Husky Drywall tool looks pretty awful too. :D

I got the same thing except i got the surge instead of the charge tti. It was a toss up between the two though. Glad i got the surge, i love the scissors. I put a pen clip on my extender per the advice of somebody here, and consolidated all my important bits to one card.

It was a gift from my wife, she nows how much I like GITD things, so her little joke you see.

If you want I can ask her where she got it?

Well yesterday the Post Office finally got around to delivering my last present. I got a new Vic Climber. YAY!!!!! The scissors on the Super Tinker that I was carrying were pretty worn out. Not just the spring but also getting dull and nicked. I reckon I could try and fix them but that might prevent me from getting new Swiss Army Knives. DTH is happy!!!!  :cheers: :cheers:

Also, a nice new Charge TTi with all the trimmings :o  :D
