Denial.http://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,62639.0.html
I've tried to explain the concept of buying a used tool of known quality instead of a brand new tool of unknown quality for the same price, to too many people too many times. Some people just won't accept that something old and dirty can be better than something new. I would snap up a $20 SuperTool so fast I might sprain my wrist getting my wallet out. I only buy stuff like this Savile Row tool from Macy's because I have a hard time not buying interesting looking tools when I see them just sitting on a blanket like this one was. It's a sickness.
