Very generous loki.

Do they need to be new mods or will older mods (and their associated threads) count?

loki-mobile · **Reply #2 on:** September 02, 2015, 11:33:17 PM

You can do make any mods (new or old). Winner will be selected participants forum

Awesome stuff.

I submit my SurCharge and ST300 XD for consideration.

Kampfer · **Reply #4 on:** September 02, 2015, 11:51:17 PM

All my mods are very minor, only involves swapping tools or removing some metal, nothing compare to others.

Very generous giveaway loki

I'll get some pics of mine together with some of the reasoning behind them

enki_ck · **Reply #6 on:** September 03, 2015, 12:25:56 AM

Very generous of you.

Quick question though.

Is this limited to Leatherman mods or can mods on other tool manufacturers like Gerber or SOG, or even mods on Swiss Army knives be submitted?

gregozedobe · **Reply #7 on:** September 03, 2015, 03:15:18 AM

Very good of you

Breezy12 · **Reply #8 on:** September 03, 2015, 07:25:19 AM

very generous of you, loki!

I'll start by submitting the Mini Surge that I made for Kampfer, along with the Mini Surge 2.0, even though it's still a work in progress. (I want to try fitting the newer BE in there before I send it off for cerakote goodness... I'll update the thread soon!)

how long will you let this contest run? I might have one more to submit in the near future.

thank you again, loki. I'm a big fan of the design you came up with.

Oh, good question! Pliers based, the Fuse-lier and of the SAKs, it's the Mega84..... however the MP426 gets by far the most use

The Fuse-ilier wasn't built for urban carry, the Turbo Diesel lives in a little grab bag for if I go to friends and family and know or suspect there'll be jobs to do, but the MP426 was built for general carry purposes and has served very well indeed.

Maybe when the Mega84 reaches version 2 or version 3 (brass liners, custom scales, maybe some file work), this may become the favourite then

AimlessWanderer · **Reply #26 on:** September 30, 2015, 02:05:15 PM

If I think about it more....

Coolest: Fuse-ilier / Mega84
Most likely to be carried: MP426
Cleverest: Mega84
If I could only have one... Turbo Diesel (and Mega84 if allowed)
