Back to trusty LM for a while
on: October 15, 2011, 01:08:37 PM
After quite a while I've decided to take my Gerber MP400s out of EDC rotation . The Sidekick I had on loan has gone back to its rightfull owner and I realised after selling my Wave I'm a little lacking so I have taken my last remaing Wave ( BO ) out of draw queen status and put into EDC  :D I've also swapped one of my MP400s for a PST  :D .

I'm on my hols starting next Saturday and hope to pick up a Sidekick of my own .

Thats all for now

Any reason you've dropped the MP400?  I'm not knocking your choices, but I'm still very fond of my 400.  The BO Wave sounds like a cool carry though, and even the good old PST has some things going for it. ;)

No reason other then wanting a change , the MP400 is a superb tool for its size and weight and I'll always have one in my EDC rotation but lets face it the Wave is far more  :multi:   lol

I try and try to like the wave, but the blades seem to open too easy for me and I just know that I will slice myself open eventually while using a screwdriver on it.

Big fan of my BO wave. With the BO pocket clip I feel extra ninja with it.
