Hello from South Africa
on: May 09, 2014, 12:28:38 PM
Hi Everyone,

New on here! Englishman but live and work in SA. Just started my collection really. A few Leatherman tools and a few more SAK's with a couple of Knives thrown in. When I get a chance I'll post some pics. I enjoy reading the posts as I like to gather as much information about a tool before I go out and get one.

My last delivery of items arrived yesterday. I got an 84mm Vic Tinker, an ALOX green solo and a Wenger Ranger Grip 52 Blackout. I also bought my wife a Clear rose coloured classic as part of her B'day present.

Well hope to chat to you all soon.

Welcome.   :cheers:

This is a great place to research new purchases.  Feel free to do many searches and ask any questions you can't find answers to (we love to talk multitools and SAKs here).

Welcome  :salute: this really is the best place to do research then commence the "testing" of tools.  One thing for sure is we like pictures so looking forward to seeing whatcha got.
