Scored an MP800!
on:
June 06, 2017, 10:26:31 PM
While browsing on Camping Survival for my Granddad's father's day present, I found a MP800 Legend for $13. I actually liked the MP800 more than the Pro Scout due to outside accessible tools. Normally on Ebay, they're north of $40, so I figured I might as well buy it. My grandfather's present is a Zippo Pocket Knife they'd mixed in a lot with cheaper Far East knives, with H.S Machining on it. My grandfather's initials are HS, so it'll work well, and I quite like the Zippo Pocket Knife due to being thin and light. I will never give someone a piece of junk I wouldn't buy, so typically knives I gift are from brands I know and trust, or knives I already carried for awhile.
I bought some Bosch jigsaw blades in preparation for getting a Pro Scout nearly a year ago. Will they work with the Legend?

Great! That's my favorite Gerber ever, I also got the Pro Scout but it quickly went away as the MP800 is all of it and more, only lacking the "flick opening"; that OHO blade is awesome
as far as the saw blades, if you got a T-Shank Bosch blade set they won't work.
AFAI Bosch doesn't make any blades with the hole on them, which is needed for them to fit on the Pro Scout or MP800 blade exchanger.
But a hole can be drilled in standard blades, I saw someone do it here.
I was lucky to find ones with holes, from a Spanish brand, so I recommend looking around. Enjoy this marvelous tool!!

Fantastic find at $13!
I'd love to snag a MP700 myself.
Be excellent to each other and always know where your towel is.
