Sold mine off a while back, but I think I might pick up another at that price!

Yep. Just spotted this on the Home Depot website.

I don't know if the price will drop any lower on these this year, and personally feel that $18 for a Sidekick is about the best deal on a new MT out there. As a starter tool or beater/loaner, I simply don't think you can do better.

That is a pretty cheap price to start a Leatherman addiction but I would still take the Kick for $20 that was on sale earlier over the Sidekick though. :)

I can appreciate that, but that deal came and went so fast that not many folks could get in on it.

I'm not sure if either of these were aimed at me, but I HAD a Kick and traded it away. I personally much prefer the Sidekick. You get locking blade, saw, and as much grief as folks give the file, it's a good deal better than none. Since the tools on the Kick don't lock, I don't see them as any more useful than the Sidekick's. For the extra weight, I guess maybe if wire cutting is a priority... :think:

For the added weight, I think it's worth getting the Sidekick. Particularly at $18.

This deal has come around a few years now. Last year, it was a Sidekick and Croc. This year, the sidekick alone. I don't imagine we're going to see this price again. I could be wrong, but I doubt it.

Okay, back to being nicely tucked in my home for the night.  :cheers:

I would kick you for free. I never want to be kicked so all of them are pretty much unwanted.   :twak:

Two of the three HD's in my general area have at least a dozen or more.  I'll wait for the additional price drop to $15.

I did pick up a marked down Gerger Crucial Essential for $11 at my Home Depot.

Picked up 7 of these at the folk's local HD.  They were able to arrange delivery from a nearby HD as they only had 1 in stock.  These will make great gifts for my maintenance staff in Vietnam, but it will take awhile before I can get them.

Cheers and thanks for the tip!

Kam checked the stores where he lives but they was out of them.

Not sure if the deal is online also but I doubt it.

Both my stores don't have it, then again both the associates were very less than helpful. I had to spell "leatherman"..........
