#79 and #47
on: June 16, 2011, 06:09:09 AM
Don't know if anybody saw it but watching 101 Gadgets That Changed The World (Popular Mechanics) on the History Channel, they revealed that the SAK was #79 out of 101 and the "Leatherman Tool" was ranked at #47.  They were very brief in the SAK info but did mention and Karl Elsener and show a Victorinox...don't think they mentioned Wenger.  They spent a little more time on Tim Leatherman...brief info from him and some shots of the manufacturing facility.  Funny thing was, they described the "Leatherman Tool" as "MacGyver-like"...they should do some research...MacGyver only used a SAK and duct tape from what I remember.

I got the Popular Mechanics magazine yesterday,and taped the two hour History Chanel tonight,but have not had time to watch it yet,looks like a lot of interesting info,and maybe if they come out with a new MacGyver show,he will use the Leatherman this time.
