Apologies for the brief absence, I've had a few very busy days.

I have however reached some conclusions:

1) Getting rid of stuff ain't easy  :facepalm:
2) I need to get rid of the easy to part with stuff and give me chance to get my head round working through the not so easy to part with stuff  :ahhh
3) I have eventually a list of stuff compiled of stuff that I'm keeping "at this stage"  :tu:
4) There may be some surprises in the stuff I'm planning to keep  :o :o :o

HUGE thanks to everyone who has contributed to this thread so far  :cheers: here's the keepers so far ...


Non-Locking Blade or Knifeless Multitools:
TurboDiesel
Fuse-ilier
Sideclip
Balance
Switchplier (assuming a satisfactory trade is reached  :salute:)
MP426
Juice KF4 OR XE6  :think:
(Far too many I know  ::), but I need to get some stuff sold now, and figure out how to reduce further later)

Locking Blade Multitools:
Spirit RT
Schrade LC6
MP700
BG Strata (Told you there's be surprises didn't I ;))

SAKs (Users):
Climber Small
Original Outdoorsman
Wenger Soft Touch 14
Compact
Tourist

SAKs (For Potential Modding):
Salesman
Sportsman
Serrated Recruit
MFV+
CT41
Harvester OR Rancher
Weekender
(These will be reserved to potentially make two mods which may free up others for sale later, or I may change my mind and let these go at a later date  :salute:)

Non-Locking Folders (Not including traditional slippies):
Byrd Tern
Byrd Wings Slipit
Vagnino Zipslip

Locking Folders:
CRKT Kit Carson Tribute M16
No name cheap thing
EAB Standard
One of the X-Tracts

I have had several PMs from people expressing interest in certain items. The simplest/fairest/quickest way for me to deal with that is to list everything on the forum and give "first dibs" to those that have already expressed an interest before today  :cheers: Please bear in mind that not everthing that's going will be listed for sale on the forum, a couple of items will be going on the newly refurbished EDCSource, and of course there's GAW prizes to consider ... and it won't just be the stuff that's not worth selling  :P

Many thanks once again to all who've contributed  :cheers:
Feel free to call me an idiot and try to talk me out of my decisions while I still can still change my mind  :D :D

Yes, the Wichard is going  :tu: I decided that if I'm only going to own/carry/use one Spirit, it should be the best one  :D If I keep the X too, the RT will never see daylight, and despite having carried the BO S once or twice, I know it would never be regular carry  :)

Finally got some stuff listed and sold  :cheers: lots more to follow soon  :ahhh

Next up I need to think about the giveaway. I think I'll put two or three different options together, pick a winner, and let them choose which tool or bundle they'd like, then list the others for sale  :cheers:

I'll try to get some piccies up tomorrow. The thing that's stopping me getting this up, and getting other tools listed, is I need to clear out some space on Photobucket because it's full  ::)

The UKPK and DofE goes but the Strata stays?  :ahhh

Good for you mate, not getting carried away...

I made myself a rule... I only get what fits nicely in my Detolf display case... when too much stuff gets there... it's off to the sale box...

PS: Great choice on the ST14 though... almost missed that  :tu:

So, where did I get to before I rudely allowed myself to get distracted  :think:

Ah yes, piccies of prizes..... well, that didn't happen  :facepalm:

I also should add that a trade deal was reached on the Switchplier, so that is now mine :nanadance: I've also listed stuff for sale that I said I was keeping, listed less stuff for sale than I said I would, and sold stuff I haven't even listed yet. So it's fair to say it's all been pretty manic  :D

We still need to tackle this giveaway though.

Here's the prize options:

Used black alox pioneer
Leatherman PST with pocket clip
Leatherman C33LX
CRKT Edgie
My BO Knifeless Rebar Mod (needs work to refine it further)
MP400
CRKT Mcginnis Tuition

Pick one tool and/or one knife  :pok:

Oh wait, I haven't picked a winner yet  :ahhh
I'd better get onto that........

No,I'm sorry,but that's not acceptable! You clearly stated a list of knives and multitools,there was no mention what so ever of beer as a prize :twak:
