We normally leave a note on the front door
Saying that our neighbour will take the package and sign for it
It has always worked  :tu:

It's your tool, so you are entitled to do whatever you want with it. If you want to take it out of the clamshell to better make it part of your collection the way you want your collection to be, then go right ahead, I have no right to dictate what anyone else does with their property.  We each have our preferences and that's how it should be.

You are right about MP600 TrailRiders being rare, I don't think Gerber made many at all, and stopped making them quite a while back, so they don't come up for sale very often.  I do have a particularly unusual one - Orange handles and BO tools (NN pliers).  It is the only TrailRider I've ever seen with coloured handles.

But if I lived in the USA (so that postage was not so crazy expensive to and from Oz) I'd definitely be trying to negotiate a swap with you for one of my mint TRs :)
Thank you for the kind words, Greg! :cheers:

Wait, what? Orange and BO Trailrider! That is a phenomenal MT for sure! :dd:

I wish postage wasn't so ridiculous, between the Australia and America, as well.  :ahhh

I do want to add one last thing. Trailrider is going to be part of my collection!  :woohoo:

Just scored a Wenger for a really good price. I don‘t even know what type it is.  :facepalm:

Has small and large blade, inline philips, wrench, scissors, bottle opener/flat head and can opener on the front side. Back side has corkscrew and awl. Anyone able to tell me what i just bought?  :rofl:

Just found it myself. It is a Nomad  :tu:

Glad you got it figured out. I was kind of hoping one of the SAK guys would chime in with an answer. Guess the experts generally tend tohang out in the Knights forum. Sometimes you have to post there. :)

 4 Pocket Large Nylon Sheath, ready for the Surge challenge.
The last two sheaths fell apart! That's why I haven't carried it for a while!

Two new headlights and a control arm (the one currently on the Jeep is rusted to Swiss cheese)

It still needs a good service....especially since I don’t know the history of any of the parts, like water pump, timing chain etc.

I have no idea how old they are or when they were last changed


But one thing at a time

Exactly, plus it’s a 21 year old vehicle, so there will always be bits and bobs here and there to fix on it

That’s just what it’s like owning an old vehicle, but I have never owned a new vehicle, so I’m used to it
