Hello from Michigan!
on: November 04, 2013, 09:43:23 PM
Hi all! This is my first post here but I have been a member for a couple month. Since joining ive been snooping around here checking out everyone's tools and what not. You could say I am a little bit of a leatherman fanboy. I got my first multi about a year ago as a gift from my father, a 96 PST etched with Boeing etched on one of the handles. Back in August I came across a NIB rebar of ebay and won if for my father and a pink micra for my fiance. Thats when the addiction started. I immediately won myself a rebar, then a kick, blast, another PST, a couple PST II's and so one......now after only three months into the addiction I own 19 multi's, and a known 20th coming for christmas (camo Fuse). For now my addiction is semi cured, but thats because i needed money to put gas in the car  ;) soo here is a picture of my "collection" .... They are starting from left to right:
(top row) SOG Power Pliers BO, Boeing PST, PST, PST II w/no PST II, PST II, modded Kick, Kick, Fuse, Blast, Rebar
(bottom row) My homemade knurl screw wrench's, leatherman tool adapter, micra, mini tool, freestyle, modded new wave, super tool, ST300, surge.
In addition to those on the left end is my C33X folder and on the right end are two disassembled PST's

Welcome to the forum!  I see you're collecting in the MTO fashion.  Oh, one more thing, gas is overrated, you need another Leatherman, or a SwissTool! :pok: :D
