North Idaho Newbie
on: January 19, 2011, 09:10:53 PM
Hello Everyone
I have recently renewed my interest in multitools. I have been lurking here for a couple of years but did not post until recently. I started carrying a SAK Classic and then a Leatherman Micra back in the 90's. I liked and used the scissors and liked the Micra in general. In 2005 Buck Knives moved to a town about 20 miles from my house. I started buying Buck knives. Then I saw a Bucktool on Ebay bought it and to make a long story short decided to focus my collecting on Bucktools and other multitools. Some day I would like to put a display of Buck Multitools together and take it to shows. I like to buy different brands of tools to see the quality and usability. 
I must admit I buy some tools on the coolness factor and not always on usability.
 I enjoy reading all the comments and info on this forum.
Any way " Thank You" for a warm welcome. :tu:
