Wenger PocketGrip/MiniGrip Series 5 MODLE
on: August 04, 2015, 09:22:36 AM
I took two years to collect the all  five wenger pocketgrip. :climber:
It spent a lot of time and energy transfer from the United States to China. :facepalm:

Hi Lapis,

Welcome aboard!   :cheers:

Very nice collection!

Something you might be interested in: A company called SGT offered a lab tool called the Fix It-Pro, which was also based on the MiniGrip. Very rare, though I think a couple of the members here have them.

Nice little ensemble lapis  :tu:

It's interesting to see your Irongrip is needle nosed. Mine is blunt nosed  :think:

Very nice collection. I had never even heard of those models until now.

I hope ColoSwiss didn't ruin your day by pointing out that you actually have 5 of 6 now...   :D

Here's the only other info I can find on the Fix-it Pro. Think someone here has one, but I've never seen one for sale.

Do have a couple of the SGT Shortex Plus models.

Except its 5 out of 8 because of the smooth round aluminum scale version or even 9 if you count the Alinghi version...
It wouldn't be the internet without people complaining.

None of this is helping poor old Tosh E!

Here's a good selection of Wenger Multitools.

Only one blunt-nose version among the MiniGrips.

Great collection Colo'  :tu:

I'm pretty green with envy that you have the SO-SAK SwissGrip. I think that's the only one I'm missing.

Obviously recent revelations now show I'm missing a fair few of those Mini-Grips....but I can live with that - along with the 5 in the opening post, I still have 2 regular versions in their box, maybe I could make one either Evo, Camo or possibly horn!! at some stage....food for thought :think:

Truth be told there are infact only 2 Wengers I'm now actively seeking. One is still available to buy new so I'm biding my time (hoping for a bargain) - the other I am prepared to go as high as it takes (within reason  :facepalm:) - but it happens to be my own personal Wenger Holy Grail

....however if JC ever offered up his Ranger Giant mod :drool: I think I'd have a hard time looking the otherway!  :ahhh

The Fix It-Pro is one of my Grails, but expect that if one ever shows up on ebay it'll go for far more than I'm willing to pay.
