Yup, but it's nice and I just love keychain tools, so I had to take it.

Me too. My simple arrived today and I love it. True, it is very small but that's what makes it perfect for edc keychain carry. Now I'm going to have to aquire everything this man makes...I still blame Grant for getting me into this mess. Pretty soon I'll be living under a bridge in a refrigerator box and talking to myself, but I'll have a hell of a lot of cool toys!

That fixed blade is very interesting. What do you think of it as an EDC knife?

JAfromMn · **Reply #34 on:** April 29, 2012, 05:40:05 AM

I like the Clip Point Tool it's got a nice blade shape and size for a outdoor work knife.

It's handel maybe small for some but fit's my hands fine.

If I where to edc it I would para cord wrap the handel but it's my yard work knife so I like to have the wrench functions easily used.

It's more a tool than a knife to me.

It's not one of my edc blades
I will usually carry a folding knife but it has it's place and has done all the job's I've used it for well.

I wish the blade grind was a little more even but it was Todd's first try at making large knives I'm just picky

Great tools Jafro!!

I like them... Saw them earlier, but now I see them all in one place, they do look great!!

JAfromMn · **Reply #36 on:** April 29, 2012, 05:51:33 PM

Thanks G.

It was nice to post my tool's and not get a bad time for it.

I'm waiting on the 7 and leatherman bit holder to do a group photo.

I didn't buy a keeper when I had the opportunity so I'll be on the hunt for it next.

I actually prefer the Keeper to the Chopper, but only because it fits much larger nuts.

JAfromMn · **Reply #38 on:** April 29, 2012, 08:27:56 PM

The funny thing about the keeper is I had 5 of them at one time . More than any of his other tool's

I did a group buy from TT PocketTool's on a edc related forum about a year ago and I sold myself one keeper short so mine was sold.

I got to try trade for one this summer.

Thank You

I just got the 7 and leatherman bit holder today

I need the keeper and drop point tool for my collection to be complete

I'm working on it.

JAfromMn · **Reply #41 on:** May 08, 2012, 10:14:54 PM

Here is a quick pic of the 7 and 7/10 side by side

I haven't seen a side by side pic yet and thought it may be of intrest to some.

grogthegreat · **Reply #42 on:** May 09, 2012, 12:07:15 AM

Thanks for the comparison pic. The 7 and the 7/10 support a lot more closely sized metric and SAE nuts compared to other similar designed tools. Does this reduce the amount of torque you can apply to a nut or bolt? It is more likely to round the head or slip? Please share/compare!
The site claims that it can be used as a bottle opener but I don't have the imagination to see how. Mind posting a pic showing how to do this?
Cheers,

I had to show a side by side pic since I got them both

I've used the 7/10 a little bit and I just got the 7 yesterday but I haven't noticed Any slippage when I have been playing around with it. I haven't done any real work with them yet.

I'm going to have to do a review of them with pic's. I got a fence to fix tomorrow and a few other things I will take them both with and give them some use that will tell me a lot.

I think the wrench has about the same bite as a lot of the pocket wrenches I've seen it goes quite a bit smaller so it adds a lot of sizes that way.

There also so small I don't know if I could use enough force to round off a head or slip

I haven't tried a lot of the different makers so it's hard for me to say it's any worse or better it works so far

The Bottle opener? it's not the same type of bottle this tool opens.

The twist assist is for removing hard to turn twist offs caps not pry off.

Good questions Grog I hope I answered some of them.

grogthegreat · **Reply #44 on:** May 09, 2012, 07:45:41 PM

I'm looking forward to the review!

I had noticed that tools like the piranha often go over other size (6mm, 8mm, 10mm etc) but this one gives you ever size. Looking at the design, it seems like this would reduce the contact area the tools has for each sized nut. I have no idea if this is an actual problem or not.

So the "bottle opener" is for twist caps...

No wonder I couldn't see how to use it for pry off caps!

Thanks for the answers!

jzmtl · **Reply #45 on:** May 09, 2012, 09:18:06 PM

Just from looking at the photo, you may be able to use the wrench opening as a bottle opener, probably only works with the bigger one though.

I don't think it will work with them the opening is to small.

If the 7/10 was just a hint bigger it would.

After some research the 7/10 will open a beer.

I para cord wrapped my c.p.t..

It's more comfortable and secure to hack on stuff with.

I can still pry with it

I don't think it will fly out of my hand now

I got the Drop Point Tool as a Early Birthday gift.

I've been working on a different handel wrap for it but have found any I like yet so I've left it plane and added a lanyard.

Capbyrd · **Reply #51 on:** July 17, 2012, 05:36:15 PM

Thanks for spending my money guys. I have a skull on the way and I'll likely order more as they become available. I hate that I missed out on the capper last week.

kitbeard · **Reply #52 on:** July 17, 2012, 06:00:26 PM

I've had a Capper for three weeks or so, and it's far more effective as a bottle opener than I expected. Knowing me, it's down to poor technique, but I found it will lift a bottle top in a couple of goes. I've just mislaid my first rev Skull tool but have the second rev version on the way. I like the TT tools I've had so far; I get the sense a lot of thought goes into their design and they offer a lot of quality for the money. I do like the stock width on TT tools, this makes them comfortable to use and avoids the issue I've got with the Pocket Toolx Brewzer, Gerber Shard and the infamous, evil Navy CUI 2001, which is that they're bit too thin. For such a small tool, the Capper is comfortably wide and therefore easier to handle than I'd expected. The TT website indicates that a new batch of non-Ti Cappers is planned, and I think they will be well worth seeking out.

Capbyrd · **Reply #53 on:** July 17, 2012, 06:31:27 PM

I'll definitely be keeping an eye out for the new non-Ti cappers but I really wanted one of the Ti ones. I'll just have to keep an eye on ebay and exchanges.

Blitzwing · **Reply #54 on:** July 17, 2012, 11:10:29 PM

Love my capper! Just wish I could put it on my keyring

jzmtl · **Reply #55 on:** July 17, 2012, 11:30:36 PM

Ive always thought that knife look a bit strange, and finally figured out why. Aesthetically too much straight portion on the edge, doesn't go well with all the curves.

JAfromMn · **Reply #56 on:** July 18, 2012, 01:06:47 AM

Missed out on the Ti capper it wasn't in the budget.

I'I have been trying to collect all the tt tool's but the budget's the budget.

I do not own a Keeper or Capper. I keep missing out on his best bottle openers.

Good thing I don't Drink much.

BIG-TARGET · **Reply #57 on:** July 23, 2012, 09:50:39 PM

One thing is for sure, the prices are pretty reasonable

Metropolicity · **Reply #58 on:** August 20, 2012, 04:51:31 PM

Just got myself a Chopper in the mail. Used it over the weekend.

Good design, but I wish it was a tad bit longer...hrmm..where to find some S30v lying around to chuck up on the plasma cutter.

wyk3d · **Reply #59 on:** September 22, 2012, 05:13:53 AM

Question to those that have the chopper with the box cutter option. Is this safe to carry in a pocket or would there be potential for accidents?
