Sounds like someone has been bitten hard by the Mr Pinchy bug   

In other news, a well travelled yellow MP600 landed down under today, after a stay in Russia

When it rains it pours.

Sweet bit of kit there Capt!  I have to admit though, I had a real  moment when I looked at the first pic.  I thought the tool was sitting on the box, and I thought "Wow, either that box is huge, or the tool is tiny!"  I then realized it was just the picture. 

[jerseydevil]

Sweet!  Nice score Cap'n! 

[Toolslinger]

Really wish I could get better pictures of this but figure you guys will still enjoy it! 

Any chance of more picks of the sheath setup? Looks interesting but hard to make out.

Tracking says my new BO MP600 Bluntnose with Carbide inserts is waiting for me at home . Now it's going to be a long wait till end of day...

(Still waiting on my SS version of the same tool. Was shipped before the BO one, but is taking longer to get here...)

*Coughs* Think I'm feeling a little (Gerber) bug coming on...

Did anyone else notice that the tool is an older version Mr Pinchy than the one in the pictures on the box ?

Yea. It does not have the file but an awl instead. I will get more pictures up.

Will do. I have personally never seen this sheath before, but I'm sure others have. I wish I could use my camera to upload better pics but its not possible right now. I will get the best pics I can though. Give me a few.

There have been some great pickups lately everyone.    Nice to see newer members taking the flicky plunge and liking it as well.    Now, you all need Balances, Octanes, and MPTs.......

I am yet to own a MPT.    I would love to get one or......uhh......fifty, but my funds are tied up on other things right now. Hopefully soon enough. I might try and trade for a few. 

[captain spaulding]

The bits go behind the tool in the elastic portion like in the picture on the front of the box in my other post.

Thanks everyone. Wouldn't of happened if not because of one of our valued members. Thanks again! You know who you are. 

[gregozedobe]

A v2 to boot. That's agreat score there capt.      

And in great condition too.     Some of the old Mr Pinchy's have had to endure hard usage because they are such a tough old tool, not sophisticated or flash, just hard working.

While its in good condition but the lack of a proper camera hides its problems. There is rust (or something) on the tool and in some hard to reach places. Im thinking full disassembly on this one. Should clean up very nice though.

Cap'n, what's the shape of the edge on the blade and awl?

[captain spaulding]

Blade appears to possibly be the factory edge if they did a sub par job. That said its still a good edge. There is a small amount of rust on the edge, but I should be able to get it off. The awl edge is much better and is definitely factory. The awl looks un used.

That's got to be the earliest version of the bit adaptor/coupler I think I've ever seen.  I wonder if it fits on the Phillips of the MP600?

Would be nice to know.  to bad I'm never opening the bits cause they're sealed shut. 

Good to know its a early version.

[captain spaulding]

Once I get a computer again I can get some good pictures of it on my camera and upload them.

SMURF NO!!!


I would rather take a punch in the face than open those bits. 

[captain spaulding]

Just out of curiosity did they use the same box for different models as the Mr. Pinchy is a different model than the one on the box.

I'll take that as a "maybe" then.

I have what I think is the same bit kit (it came with a V1 FPR Multi-Plier/Mr Pinchy).  It fits the several MP600s I tried it on, and all my Mr Pinchy's that I tried (V1 FPR, V1, V2, V3, V4, V5).  The phillips drivers and the bit adapter are both slightly rectangular in cross section, so unless you try it the right way it feels like it doesn't fit.
