Yea, when i was a young man I use to collect them. Now I can only look at them and lick my lips.


Licking your lips when you look at them might be the problem.  :think: ;)

If it has a compass, I am all for it...as for the rest...family forum here...not that I needed to remind you fine folks.  :facepalm:

Come to think of it...it would be just grand if they made it like a Schrade Navitool. Now that would be swell.  :rofl:

Yes, I am going to hell.

I had to look it up, it's one cool looking tool for sure, but too large and bulky for my taste.

And scissors on a supposedly dedicated outdoor tool, really ?!  :td:
EDC and OCD. A wicked mix.

On the other hand I could use those scissors for a Mini-Surge mod  :P

They look like a step up from the Wingman scissors and very close to ones found on 91mm VSA tools.  :think:

EDC and OCD. A wicked mix.

I've not been enthralled by any of LM's latest tools, but thought the tweaks they mde to the Surge were well thought out. If a Surge is what floats your boat, I'd say go for it.

I don't hold out much hope for the upcoming LM tools ... but I have been wrong before ... more than once  :P

The Surge is a beast of his own .

The only "survival" MT I know of was the "PATHFINDER SRT" designed by Dave Canterbury. A number of years ago :think:

I think that Leatherman are good at making multitools which can be used for multiple applications which includes self defence as well.
If I need to pick some good EDC tools.
Then I would take my love leatherman multi tool wave and a flash light. Other are just a waste !!!
