Greetings from Canada...
on: February 16, 2016, 01:48:25 AM
I've been browsing this site for over a year, finally decided to join so I could actually contribute to the conversation.

I stumbled over this site looking for a Paladin PT-540 to replace one that was stolen at work.  Although it has it's shortcomings I have a sentimental attachment to the beast - it's saved my bacon many times over.

The Paladin's a bit hefty for EDC so I carry a Cybertool lite (really just wanted the magnifying glass in addition to the tool set - for light I have a little titanium light made by Tain).  Hoping to get a customized Cybertool from Syph007 - that guy's work is beautiful.

It's great to find a place like this.

Forgot to mention I picked up my first SAK in 1988 - a Swisschamp with the SOS kit.  I still sometimes carry it on the weekends, it's in great shape.
