Interesting idea for anyone that deals with electricity. Custom bit that slides right into the bit sleeve and designed to go into large bit exchanger.

Or someone comes up with a mod (or a manufacturer comes up with an improvement) that was originally done by a member here a decade ago.

Haha I'm sure it happens all the time. That's why I generally just send up a general credit to the universe whenever posting a picture on here. As I'm sure someone has already done it before. And I'd really rather not offend anyone by taking credit

Thanks Poncho  :cheers:

I have wanted to do this for months after seeing your knife.

The Phillips driver and saw came from a Blast. No modification needed.

The awl was formerly a 2.5D Phillips from a Sidekick. I liked what I did for the Chinese multi tool knife I recently bought, so I made one for this knife. I ground the 4 sides of the tip to make a point. I also enlarged the pivot hole and reshaped the the tool so that the funky backspring would provide good detent for the awl. I needed to take off a smidgen from the tip of the backspring so that the awl would stand out inline with the frame. I don't know how long the backspring will hold up  :dunno:

I also took a spacer from what is left of a Klein multi tool, drilled it out, and thinned it a little to fill out the space beside the awl. I had hoped to put the can opener from the Blast beside the awl, but it did not quite work with the saw.

The scissors come from a Chinese MT and are as good as Surge scissors. I had previously modded them for a Wave, so I was able to drop them into this knife.

I had a second handle, so why not do something with it?




Knife blade came from a Klein MT.
Diamond file from the Charge.
Large bit driver from the Charge.
Thin straight driver from a Blast.
Large straight driver/pry tool from a Surge.
Canbopener from the Charge.
