Totally,
Threw one in the wash to see if it would shrink or anything, sure enough, no! Feels better, so definitely gotta get a few more so I can throw out some of my old ones!

I really like how more modern clothes resist shrinkage. I remember the old "buy one size too big, wash, and it fits". :ahhh
The only shirts I buy that shrink are the $3 undershirts I wear to help stop sweat from soaking my regular shirts. And I am OK with undershirts being a bit small, since I don't like them to bunch up under my main shirts. :)

I’m like an odd size, cause large is too small, yet xl is too big, but I’d rather have that extra room just in case, the only shirts I have that are “large” are my white v-neck undershirts, and that’s all I wear when around the inside of the house, nothing wrong with those besides there a little snug, I used to wear the sleeveless but I guess my style changed..

Nice MT GLBM  :like: :tu:
Thank you, Speedy! :cheers:

The Radius is an interesting tool to say the least. Only four fold out implements, with the scissors and "blade"(which has more metal than a Supertool blade, but about half the cutting length. :rofl:
The pliers metal reinforcement end, with a lot of plastic handle before the tool end metal reinforcement. So if you grip hard, the flex is hilarious. :rofl:

And it is pretty heavy and physically larger than the Surge. :facepalm:

Perfect for your collection GLBM  :tu:
I don’t think it’s a real user with that much flex :like:

Though, the other Radius that I removed the overmolding on, may make for a fun discontinued tool challenge contender. 30 days with the plastic monster.  :dwts: :rofl:

I think that's a special kind with snare wire, some kind of jute or something for starting fire and something else in it, but I forgot.

I asked stormdrane but he wasn’t sure,
I wasn’t sure if it was that fire lighting but he said maybe for something stronger?

I am traveling overseas soon and don't want to chance losing my precious Squirt S4, so I picked up a Gerber Dime Green to bring along. Larger and heavier than the Squirt, and the action needs some time to smooth out but it's pretty good all things considered.

Nothing big really, but I finally got a replacement for my squirt e4 which vanished into thin air :think:

The es4 is a perfectly acceptable replacement as I only ever used the wire strippers.

That's part of the reason my E4 stays at home most of the time anymore. I lost both a Crescent Toolzall Pocket Pro and an original Japan-made SOG MicroToolclip, both not exactly easy to replace.   The E4 is different, in that it's one of the few I wanted since I was a kid. Our Radio Shack carried them, but I couldn't afford the close to $40 price tag at the time. Except decent ones are going for that today. Mine cost $25 used.
