Hello from California
on: January 18, 2013, 07:05:12 PM
Hi all, excellent forum! Organised and polite, who can ask for more?

I'm a somewhat "accidental" MT enthusiast. I work for a geothermal consulting company doing tons of fieldwork, so having a MT at my hip is a lifesaver. After buying tools, using tools, losing some in the field and recovering others, it finally hit me that these really are little engineering art gems, aren't they? Anyway, my EDC work tool is a BO SuperTool 300 EOD and EDC personal tool is a new Rebar. Neat toys, but they sure get beat up!

Welcome aboard! 


Yeah, we're polite, but that's just how it is among a bunch of people carrying sharp, dangerous knives.

Hvala lijepo! I have some very close Croatian friends from university, I hope to make the trip out there sometime. Beautiful country, tough language. I can count to ten... one hundred if I concentrate. :think:
