I do like the non yellow colors that several of you have dyed I think When/if I get one I will more than likely be changing the color as well
I checked my Awl and it seems OK. I'll get some pics in the morning. Pete
Just another example of Leatherman's wonderful quality control I reckon, Beat.
First off, that whistle/fire-steel plastic part is rattling a lot, I don't like it Used the screwdriver during lunch break to move a closet drawer rail. Its OK, but like all MT screwdrivers, it needs quite a lot of room to operate.

You should have a second look at the image, the Signal is held in place by the screwdriver (and the hammer standing on the wall), he is not touching ground. With the long configuration it would have fallen down.

Yours looks better meaning I got the short straw

I wished LM would give options for different colours as there seems to be many that don't care for the yellow

I can see the use for yellow in the bush, but having say yellow, black, red and orange as options will be cool. Or maybe a rainbow option, now that will be nice.Pete
I'd rather have a Ti option to be honest. Don't like the plastic parts.Even cooler would be, if options would include other implements. E.g in the space of the Whistle/Firesteel, they could make a holder for 2 bits.

I have posted a pic in another thread with a bit where the fire-steel goes. With a bit of modding I think one extra bit will fit.Pete
I think my computer is trying to tell me something
A hammer is nor the most subtle of tools and not the cleanest to crack nuts... but it's FUN
I was thinking in this orientation
Quote from: Etherealicer on January 05, 2017, 08:38:25 PMI was thinking in this orientationThat is probably the better option, but whistle will be completely trashed.
