BBQ EDC!

Metropolicity · **on:** June 12, 2012, 05:39:55 AM

Ever since fire was discovered, man's quest to hone and ulitlize this means of heat to cook has been endless. My quest is to eat as much of it as I can before the cold Canadian winters take those opportunties away from our beer chilled hands. I've been on the hunt for a discontinued, quirky Leatherman Flair for some time now and until recently I was fruitless either because they were too expensive or I just couldn't find one. Today was unlike any other, when I opened my mailbox to discover my very own Flair. Just got a Leatherman Flair in the mail today.

Finally, I'll have something to EDC during BBQ season this year. The Flair, combined with my Spyderco Rock Lobster, and CRKT Eatin' Tool, I can handle the thickest of steaks, heaviest of potato salads and the deepest jello bowls.

Darn you B-52s for making me think of your song whenever I read "Rock Lobster."

Wonderful selection for the awesomeness of a BBQ.

I used to write a lot of copy for advertisements and graphics so yah...it could be that bit of experience coming through.

Blogging? Who has the time! hahah

One more EDC load-out complete... What's next, your Morning Shave and Toothbrushing EDC?

(Oh man, I shouldn't be giving him ideas like that...)

Oh man, if I didn't loath shaving, I would actually give straight razor shaving a go. I would make the best damn tactical straight razor ever.

mmmm Damasteel, G10, BO liners...

Whatever insane shaving apparatus you came up with, I'm sure it would be amazing. You're a true artist!

Congrats on the Flair score Eric!

It certainly compliments your other culinary EDC tools (although I do have to question the ability of the CRKT Eatin' Tool to reach the "deepest jello bowls")

But the title of this thread is BBQ EDC!, and certainly no Multitool.org grill man worth his salt would feel fully equipped without a Brookstone 4-in-1 Barbeque Tool on his belt, right?

I saw that in eBay. Any good?

They are built surprisingly well I must say.

But as far as practicality goes.....

I saw another similar idea but it was more of a retractable design. I think it's time to invest

If you buy it and later decide you don't like it, there is enough stainless steel in one that the scrap value would nearly reimburse your purchase price
