Greetings From Michigan
on: July 06, 2017, 05:07:42 AM
Hi everyone. Paul from Michigan here. Great website and group of people. I am a Leatherman addict, slowly and steadily building my collection. I have a pst, pulse, blast, wave (1 original & 2 new), supertool original, 200, & 300, surge, rebar, sidekick, wingman, squirt ps4, & micra. So far, I'm not attracted to the juice or skeletool lines, just the more "tradtional" type ones, but that could change :) . Also Victorinox! I won't list them as I'm not sure on all the names at the moment, but they are great too, I have almost as many of them. Currenty captivated by the 111mm ones. Anyway, glad to be here!

Greetings.  What do you carry of your collection?
For leatherman, even though I have several excellent and capable models, during the work week I carry the modest Wingman. Reason is I work in an office and I've found that to be the best LM for that environment, mainly because of it's weight and the package opener (love that), otherwise, I would choose a wave. I rotate that with a couple of victorinox, the explorer (my favorite "standard" size model) and one-hand trekker for a 111mm option. :cheers:
