Luckily my wife is a very practical person, and carries a Farmer and a purple Classic. She is supportive of my hobby, but then I only have 5 in my collection.  :facepalm:

The worst was when she started counting them !

Now that's a scary thought! :o  Up until now I'd have sworn my wife has no idea how many SAKs/MTs I have, but now you've got me wondering. :ahhh

My wife very rarely asks to borrow any MT of mine, she's got her very own little collection of SAKs and a LM Style that she rather likes. :)

When the count went past 50 is was kind of comical  :rofl

Now, I read again the title "Wife thinks your multitool is useless" and thought about it from another perspective. In that case I'll have to ask her but who knows when they are sincere about these matters?

I mean, who in here has just one multitool? Since it doesn't say Multitools, then something else and unique per man might be implied.

So my daughters call me "magician" :D And when my wife asks "now, why do you need that?", my daughters reply "mom, dad is a magician and a magician needs tools!". I just smile :D

Is your full name Crowley then Aleister?

 :D

Oh come on,somebody's gotta have a Ozzie Osbourne link here :pok:

Ah why not.  :)
MR.CROWLEY-OZZY OSBOURNE

Crowley was an interesting character for sure.....
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aliester_Crowley

Talk about a thread derailment!  Right into black magic....  :ahhh

I love how topics grow on MTO! :D

By the way, my mobile phone rings like "Paranoid" :drink:

Black Sabbath - Paranoid(1970 - Music Video)

I also believe that Crowley had a very interesting personality, a very smart man with a very twisted sense of humor that many people took literally.

For example, Crowley in court:
Hilbery: cross-examining Crowley for the Defense) Are you asking for damages because your reputation has suffered?
Crowley: Yes.
Hilbery: For how many years you have been publicly denounced as the worst man in the world?
Crowley: Only by the lowest kind of newspaper.
Hilbery: Did any paper call you "the Monster of Wickedness"?
Crowley: I can't remember.
Hilbery: Have you, from the time of your adolescence, openly defied all moral convention?
Crowley: No.
Hilbery: And proclaimed your contempt for all the documents of Christianity?
Crowley: Not all the doctrines...
Hilbery: Did you take to yourself the designation of The Beast 666?
Crowley: Yes.
Hilbery: Do you call yourself The Master Therion?
Crowley: Yes.
Hilbery: What does Therion mean?
Crowley: Great Wild Beast.
Hilbery: Do these titles convey a fair expression of your practice and outlook on life?
Crowley: "The Beast 666" only means 'sunlight'. You can call me "Little Sunshine."
:D

now Dion Fortune on the other hand :dd:
Dion Fortune's books are a great read but she always leaves important stuff out (and she admits it too). Crowley doesn't keep any secrets but you need to read between the lines or what you read could be perceived as absolute nonsense :D But let's not start on this topic because I think we already are waaaay far from "Wife thinks your multitool is useless?" :D

My wife and I were out this morning running general errands. We were wondering around the mall and she mentioned she needed a new nail clipper. We ended up finding her a Wenger Nail clipper, so now she actually has a multitool.

No wives yet :P

However, I can say that while my parents allow me to buy SAKs, they do not want me to spend too much money on them. We had a small argument when I tried to buy a CT Lite and a Silvertech Climber at launch.

I cannot mod.
I cannot trade.
But I can collect.

Cybertool 34 . . . for her to believe this tool is the greatest thing ever :)

This should be obvious to anyone - the Cybertool 34 or 'Cybertool' as it was called back when I bought mine (before the 29 or 41 or Lite existed) is a truly fantastic urban SAK. So incredibly useful for so many tasks!
Clearly your wife is smart enough to see this tool for what it is - a useful thing to have on hand.
