Hello to everyone,

I have just joined MultiTool.org and would like to introduce myself.
I am a 49 year old male who served 23 years in the UK military before leaving in 2004 and continuing my career as an advisor to the United Arab Emirates Army. I returned to live in the UK in 2013.
I have used and had an interest in all types of military knives and multi tools for over 30 years and it is great to find a site shared by like minded people.

G'day from a Brit in Oz.

And welcome to a brilliant forum full of very nice but totally obsessed multitool people.
There's not much in the world of SAK/MT that is not in this forum or known by its members :)
I have been a member for a year - And it seems that we have quite a few military/ex-military folk here.

You can even tell us what your name means in the thread on this topic!!

Hello!  Good evening!
I saw your post just now. I glad to meet you, because all my family is quite closely connected with military service.
And I am collecting military knives and multitools. I think it will be interesting to share the photos of our collections.
If you want - I can send you some photos to your email.
Obviously, it will be interesting for me to see your collection.
May be in nearest future we can talk about some changes, if it will be interesting for both of us.
Thank you,
My kind regards,
Violeta.
