I like the looks of the one without the finish best, but it's a shame that you lose the ruler when the finish is gone. The pic with the Zippo looks like two well-loved tools.

Yeah, I wish they'd put a clear finish on it with black or white ruler markings. That would be ideal to me.

Somehow I've never warmed up to multitools with colored handles. They just look cheap to me.

How do you feel about the grey ones then?

As far as the Zippo goes... it's only been well loved for about two weeks now. It's got all those scratches and such because it's some new "finish" they have that saves you the bother of worrying about the first scratches.

I've always carried bics when I want a lighter, but saw that Zippo (and that it was only $10

) while I was waiting for the wife at the mall, so I picked it up.

I have to say, these Zippos are a lot of fun, if not quite as simple as a bic...

Funny that, that was my first thought, but when I saw my first one in the flesh (a Squirt P4) I was pleasantly surprised. My biggest concern is that the anodised finish doesn't seem too robust and seems to scratch up very easily.

Agreed on both counts. And I like the shiny Juice finishes even more.

At least NeitherExtreme has dealt with that little problem

I guess I did, didn't I...

Here's another one of the improved

one...

NeitherExtreme · **Reply #32 on:** August 14, 2008, 08:46:12 PM

Here's two more colors I doctored up for the KF4...

This is more of the drab/olive green I was trying for in the first place. Still not perfect though...

And here's one for the secure man...

The grey ones definitely have a higher-quality appearance to me. That's what I'm going to try to buy if I can find one.

I've always like the grey ones better too...

You might like the "Clear" SC2 then:

They only do the SC2 in that finish though, which is a shame as I really like it.

I wish they'd offer them all in that color, I'd take that over grey anytime...

Isn't it odd that most of the things we like, are not as available as the things we like less

Or, maybe we like them so much because they're not available.

Hmm, that's dangerously close to philosophy for this time of night

I think we're just picky!

And I've always thought late nights were the best time for philosophy.

Much better than early morning, my cynacism is the first thing to wake up.

Nice backgrounds though WH. I hope you've got more pictures of that place to show us!

NeitherExtreme · **Reply #42 on:** August 18, 2008, 01:46:22 AM

More yellow!

I need to track one of those down for a good price...
I've just got little bits of yellow left.

As requested. I will remove them in a couple days since they are not kf4 related.

WH867 · **Reply #44 on:** August 19, 2008, 03:06:16 AM

few more.

It's be a shame to delete them mate, send us a pm when you want them moved and I'll send them to the senery thread

If you mean the museum pictures they were taken in Wapakoneta,Ohio. Neil Armstrong's Home town.

I saw it comming, but oh well... I did give it a bath afterwards, but that was as much do to the algae that got stuck all over the tool and in all the corners. I was surprised how much algae could get in a tool in 15 seconds! And for what it's worth, I've had no rust "problems" with this tool, even with rather sparse upkeep, though I know that might come as a shock to some of you.
