I'd like to see a "Flair 2" as well. Great urban/weekend/going out/food and drink geek tool. I love mine, and an updated version would be something I would buy two of.

Beats hell out of a snowboard tool.

  Won a Smurfit Flair tonight, and will probably do a month long EDC carry thing about it for kicks.

  Had read the spread was more for cheese and crackers, and the fork was for hors d'oeuvres and small pickles ... but ... I often don't carry a spork with me at job #2. I have a plastic fake spork in the glove box of my car ... the spork that used to reside there went walkabout. So... have plans on using the Flair fork as a fork, for all intents and purposes. As for a spoon ...  :shrug:
  If it doesn't work for me maybe I'll find a home for it. Am guessing it's the size of a PST?

G'Day,

I use a Flair Fork daily for lunch duties. It is much better than a plastic utensil of any kind IMHO.  :D I added a Flair fork to a PST / PST II combination of tools and that works well for me.
Linky: http://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,42637.msg683928.html#msg683928

The Flair is roughly the size of the PST, just a tad thicker due to the cork screw.

Cheers,

Pete

Yes everyone should have a Flair :D A very odd tool for the time LM came out with it but looking back it is a forerunner for some of the corkscrew carrying Juices :cheers: My dad got one from our company years ago and carried it for a pretty good while before deciding that it was a bit silly and stopped carrying it ::) :D

Hope you like it OII :cheers:

Seems like I have heard that they are weaker than the Juices corkscrew and have been known to bend or worse snap off :o I would be careful with it anyways just to be on the safe side :tu:

  is there some concern over the Flair corkscrew? Has anyone swapped it out for a Juice or other version?? Or it just too sexy to do this? :D

I bought a Flair that had a broken cork screw back spring - a common fault. I removed the corkscrew and added a PST II file to it. It is about 99% fit, with the file needing some sanding to open completely. Here is the write-up: http://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,56229.msg997812.html#msg997812
I have not sanded/filed the top of the file to open it completely, but can happily report it works very well. It is a very cool tool.

I have an extra cork screw if needed, but they are riveted in. I don't know if they will be compatible with the Juice ones.

Cheers,

Pete

I recently bought a Flair, and had to return it because the corkscrew was loose. It was literally dangling in all directions. Seller claimed it a common problem. Is it normal for this tool? I was expecting it as snappy as the Juice's.

The corkscrew was the first one used by LM and it is quite fragile. As you said the later LM models get a better one. It is common for them to break, but that does not mean you should not look for/get a working one.

Yep a common problem for a lot of second hand ones. It is not the cork screw that breaks, but the back spring on the inside that holds the tension. If you are not going to use the cork screw the tools from a PST / PST II will fit in there. All you need to do is to drill / file the rivet off, but be careful not to scratch the handles.

Cheers,

Pete

Thanks for the inputs, guys. The back spring was probably broken, hence dangling corkscrews. Having handled one, my curiosity was satisfied.
