If I was that concerned about carrying extra weight I'd probably do something about my own before I worried about my multitool's. Def

I also meant to say that I don't prefer to wear it on my belt as it would look a little odd at my job (I work at a bank) and I would probably get some strange looks. Besides, I like being able to just reach into a pocket if I need to use/play with my multitool, instead of having to hear the loud sound created by the velcro of the sheath.
I don't understand it either, I have people freak out when I pull out a SAK, let alone my BO Wave. That one really scares folks. If I flip open a tactical folder folks start saying things. And I live in Montana, you'd think folks here would be just like folks should be in Texas but they aren't. When I lived in Texas I never had any issues, most folks there DO carry knives, and more than you think are packing a gun too.

I pulled out my surge to help a friend open one of those tough/annoying transparent plastic containers they put headphones in and he was just like "Dude... do you just carry that thing around everywhere? The cops don't care?"

That's what you say Seriously though, I totally get what you're saying. I had an incident that people freaked out because a bunch of people pulled out pocket knives at a Christmas party to help a lady open a gift. I live in Texas where EVERYONE carries a knife(s) and a gun(s). Still don't understand what all the commotion was about. Sent from Endor using Schlapatalk

Home of Leatherman, but I used a Surge to open a bottle of Coke and the girl behind the counter asked me if I needed to use "that machete" (her words, not mine). What kind of sheltered life must some people live?
