I have not taken photos every day but I did only carry this tool along with a folding knife all month. I'm not in it for the draw, just part of the fun.
With no outside accessible blades it makes sense to supplement it with a OHO folder.

As a tool overall...
Its total overkill for opening bottles and cans and the the same can be said about the blades.

For actual work it excels and I keep this handy when "real" work is around. It did a lot of motorcycle repairs in this month I raced in Lesotho, repaired a seized bike and did a lot of work on my other bikes too.
Most memorable use was removing an old barbed wire fence that that got wrapped up in a friends wheel out on the trails.  Cut, cut, cut, pull and he was free. Scraping with the awl was handy too.

I carried it in its belt pouch at work and didnt get any comments or looks, if I was in a more tradesman orientated job it would be my choice of tool. 

Here it is with a "customised" Spyderco Manix 2 LW

Day 31:

Used the ST300 to open my Highlander key fob to replace the battery.



This has been a most enlightening challenge. I have learned that the newest Supertool is a beast that can handle everything thrown at it, but is not something I ever wish to daily carry again.  For my work and lifestyle, it is simply too big and heavy.

This ST is going to now take up residence in the console of our Highlander.  It's BO brother is going in my truck.

This has been a nice challenge :tu:  The weight was the factor for me as well, but as a handy MT, the Supertool is hard to beat.  I am definitely looking forward to carrying my other MTs though.  This likely won't get carried again for a good while.

This challenge seemed to speed up the months passing.   
The ST 300 is large and does fit my paws well. I normally use normal tools for my daily tasks, yet substituted the ST300 for most equipment interaction and it did well.
The ST3 will now ride in my tool   satchel and be transferred to belt carry for tasks when away from the truck. 
The pliers and Phillips were used often, large flat blade did work as a good pryer, but my favorite tool was the serrated blade. 
I originally picked the ST3 because of finding it for under $40 as a stock reduction sale at the blue big home improvement store. Used it often and found the  challenge a great way to test my MT aptitude, and found it will be a great solution for my work needs. 
I acquired a leather box sheath, so it would ride tighter on the belt.  It did so well I forget it was there until changing out of work pants.   
I am now considering a Rebar with but adapter for my normal everyday carry complimented by a SAK pioneer or farmer.
My Micra will continue riding along with coin purse and Bullet space pen.
Thank you for viewing our events and adventures.  And MTo for the venue.

I enjoyed the challenge this month.  I found I really could carry the Super Tool 300 comfortably in my back pocket despite its bulk, but I didn't care much for having it on my belt.  It has been able to do everything I asked of it and the only thing I found lacking was that it doesn't carry scissors which I think are essential in daily carry. Not much of an issue if you carry it with any SAK with scissors.  Also, the daily use and fiddling with my ST300 has loosened it up so I can one hand open the pliers now.  :tu:

31 + - Had one more project designated for the ST 300, and finished it this afternoon.  With wife carefully watching every part assembly, too!

If you like the 300 then you will definitely get along with the Rebar IMO :tu: Same tool set in a smaller package :cheers:

I agree that scissors are missing from this still awesome MT, so I added some Wave scissors to mine :cheers: They don't lockup exactly like the rest of the tools but once deployed close the tool up and it is impossible for them to close on you :tu:

Late Day 31:  again, I took the picture yesterday, but never got around to posting it.  I was helping my girlfriend clean her office and noticed the cap of dish soap had a lot of semi-congealed soap on it.  I used the Supertool to hold the cap under hot water and rinse the soap off.
