Hello from Michigan
on: June 04, 2013, 10:07:10 PM
I just found this site and signed up immediately. Looks like my kind of place. I install and repair medical equipment for a living, so tools are important to me, especially easy to carry ones.

While I enjoy anything sharp, my first love is SAKs. I also have many assorted multis, but find most of them too heavy. My favorite is a Leatherman Wave, which fits the bill pretty well for me.

I restore classic British sports cars and Gravely garden tractors, and am a new Grandfather.
