Well, I am part of the PowerAccess purchase, so I have that on the way; along with a new Gerber Grappler. I was torn between the Leatherman Crunch and the Grappler. I went with the Grappler as I prefer the Gerber slide and didn't want to assemble the Crunch when I neeeded to use it.

 :tu:
As a true Vise Grip multitool fan, the only one I am missing in my collection is the Grappler. I'd love to hear your thoughts on it, and if you could give us your first impressions when you get it.
Thanks!    :cheers:

As a true Vise Grip multitool fan, the only one I am missing in my collection is the Grappler. I'd love to hear your thoughts on it, and if you could give us your first impressions when you get it.

I have all the common(ish) locking pliers MTs, and the Grappler is my least favourite.  I particularly didn't like the fiddly locking adjustment hidden down between the handles.  The Crunch is the best for my purposes, and has made its way into both vehicles and my Agility trial bag so that I have one handy whenever I may need it.    I'm happy to trade off the slightly longer time it takes to deploy the pliers for its compactness and robust grip  :salute:

So for my purposes the Grappler is "collection" material, not EDC.  Of course YMMV.

No longer on the way, but just came in, got me a few models, and my led lights to make my arch, and I must say after a good hour it turned out pretty good!

Got a Juice B2 coming because I feel the people demand a review. All this talk about Leatherman making half tools and passing it off as a new product makes me want to try one.

Well one package came, it's only like a week late, yesterday the Mrs called amazon to "let them know" their package is like a week late, and sure enough it comes the next day, thing is they already shipped out another one.. so she called them again today asking if they could cancel the delivery or do we just not accept it? And they said just keep it! Like ok cool, now what do I do with an extra stool? Although after I assembled this one I noticed it's dented :cry: sniff sniff, it's not perfect! Lol,

Umm, I used a sak to open everything, does that count? Cause they sent Allen keys to tighten everything, and even the Philips screws were like #3 so I needed something with a little umph..

One of these, its actually a carbide tool sharpener but they make really great ferro rod scrapers. I lost my old one of a different make.

A BO SOG Powerlock that was supposedly issued to the SAS (British Army commandos). 

Well, it has a NATO/NSN number , anyway:
5110 01 566 6638 ^ UTD 08  (I believe the ""08" means it was made in 2008)
