11th Anniversary Skinth L Shield Giveaway!
on: July 11, 2017, 02:41:17 PM
They say that the weekend is always so far away, well, I am going to make it seem even further!  It's time for another draw, and I will pick a winner on Monday, July 17th!  And here's what we are drawing for!



A Skinth L Shield in black, from our good friend and forum member Eric, aka Metropolicity!



The L Shield is the largest of the Shield series (L stands for Large! :P) produced by Skinth Solutions and features a metal belt clip allowing it to mount on a belt, sweat pants, yoga pants, MOLLE gear and pretty well anywhere you may want to hang it!  It also has a double snap closure to ensure that whatever you put in all four pockets stays inside!

Yes, that's right, there are four pockets inside this sheath!  You can throw a standard multitool in the main one, a one piece tool in the front pocket and a flashlight and pen in each of the side ones, and it isn't much larger than a standard sheath! 



You can't beat that if you tried!  Well, I suppose you could, but being a high quality Skinth product it would likely come back for more! 

So how do you win this beautiful sheath?  Simple- show me your EDC sheath or bag, and let me know what is in it.  I want pictures people, after all, :worthless:

Post your pics before Saturday and you are automatically entered into the draw- I and a team of specially trained draw picking operatives will pick a winner and announce it right here in this thread!

What are you waiting for?   :pok:

Thanks for the great GAW  :tu:

I carry my multi separately in it's own sheath. Nowadays I often change which multi I am carrying regularly since I am mostly office based a lot of the time.

The accessories I carry in a cheap leather pouch in my pocket



And it contains...

1. 2 leatherman bit cards
2. Leatherman bit extender
3. Leatherman bit adapter for when I carry my rebar, juice, etc
4. Fisher bullet space pen
5. Olite i3E EOS flashlight
6. Victorinox mini driver. When coupled with the bit extender it makes a nice jewellers screwdriver for my glasses.

I carry my multi in its own sheath or my pocket usually with everything else in the pockets or on its own sheath. It would be neat to have a way to carry it all together!! Thanks for the amazing GAW!!!

Great GAW.  Thank you Metro and thank you Boss.  Good luck everyone.

I also made a sheath after realizing my LM Squirt P4 and 84mm Tinker are a perfect pairing.  I also wanted to carry my Fisher Pen and Fenix LD02 so I made a sheath for them too.

I carry a Swisstool, small Knipex pliers, and a Fenix 1AA light everyday in my awesome original Pock Its that I got from a member here.

I couldn't live without all these tools on my belt :)

Not sure if this all counts, but... here goes....

This is my (office) work EDC kit bag that lives in my large messenger bag (along with a small first aid kit and mini Thrunite torch  --- not shown)


It contains this:

1) A small Cocoon Grid-It holder
2) In the zip pocket in the back is a USB laser pointer (for office presentations, and playing with cats)
3) The largest  item is a USB mobile phone charger (with light and charging cable built in, for a Galaxy S4)
4) Grey eye glass cloth for wiping fingerprints from my specs
5) An SD card holder full of safety pins (for when my zipper breaks)
6) Three mini screwdrivers (flats and cross heads) for fixing my specs (from a Christmas cracker, iirc)
7) A black mini SAK, with a wooden toothpick whittled down to replace the original toothpick I lost
8 ) Nail clippers
9) Tweezers
10) An old telescopic pointer/pen, slightly extended for show (made obsolete by the laser pointer), but with a paper clip in the pen slot, bent into a small hook so I can scoop up small things or cables that fall behind my desk (screw on cover is that silver piece on the orange bag)
11) Tweezers
12) The blue mini-sack holds the mini USB memory thumb drives, with various different connectors, plus a USB mini light that fits a USB port

My home "maintenance"  :D kit is another Grid-It:

This contains:
1) My Juice Pro (but I have an original (my first) Wave coming soon, so am eager for that)
2) Flat bit kit (notice the adaptor is not there
3) My Squirt PS4 (although I actually pocket carry this)
4) A multi pen
5) A small retractable tape measure
6) A screw hole starter (with my home made safety catch/cork)
7)  A Topeak case containing....

The Topeak case contains a mini ratchet, selection of hex bits, the Leatherman adaptor holding a standard adaptor and PH bit, and another standard adaptor holding another PH bit.

I plan to replace this second standard adaptor with a small pry bar that would fit the elasticated band.

Thank you Metro and the Bossman for this awesome GAW!

My EDC "sheath" is this smurfing huge phone case for the smurfing huge Oukitel K10000:


First and foremost, it obviously carries this, Oukitel K10000:


In the front zipper pocket I have the necessary USB cables for using the phone as a powerbank:


And in the huge back pocket, I carry a Moleskine notebook, pen, Böker prybar clone, Nitecore TIP
and LM Micra (missing from the pic is some 2m of paracord, 5 zip ties and a fidget spinner  :P )


 :cheers:

Here's my EDC bag.  Contents are the camera (in use) in the pelican case shown, bottle of water and a couple of meal replacement bars, a bottle of hand sanitizer, a first aid kit, and a book.  Not shown was the CRKT eatntool, a spare flashlight battery in a water proof case, and other stuff added as needed depending on where I'm going and how long I'll be away.  The knives and multitool and everything else are carried on my person.

I travel for work and tasks change frequently.  I have a few sheaths with different tools for those tasks.  All pictured except Diesel which is in truck tool kit. 


Thanks for the GAW, a great way to celebrate anniversary 11.

Thanks for the chance, Metropolicity!
 :salute: :tu:

I try to carry as little as possible. When I need a larger EDC, I have a brandless sheath, with a LM Juice, Gerber Artifact,  flashlight and a whistle.

I also have a Vic sheath with a Compact, LMStyle PS, Gerber Artifact and Maratac flashlight.


Using my phone to post, that's why it's so messy...

This is an ST300 china made pouch I repaired with better leather. It holds my wave, fisher pen, a firesteel.com 3/8"×4" firesteel, and an extra(emergency) hair tie for my wife wrapped around the pen for when hers breaks. I really wish I had a surge to stuff in there! And a bit kit. And an extender. Thanks for the chance to win!

Hi.
This is my real EDC since... 1998? 1999?
I think that i carried it EVERY SINGLE DAY on my belt or in my bag.

It holds a Swisstool 1998 with the first model ratchet and two one-piece tools.
It is so badly teared because they apparently (I asked in many swiss resellers) stopped producing it in cordura. I am a veg-head, so I don't want to buy a new one in leather.
While I changed the velcro closure with an automatic button, I can do nothing for the holes or tearings.

As you can see, I have to thank you very gladly for this giveaway opportunity :D

Great giveaway MTO & SkinthSolutions!

One of the few pouches I use is Stingray leather coin and key purse, from which I ripped out the key hanger part,
It holds an MT and an AAA light. Usually it is riding in my bag, and on occasion it's in my RBP.

Thanks for yet another awesome GAW!

At work I use a Rebar and/or Swisstool X/Charge in their own sheath.

In the weekends I use a leather bag that contains a SAK, multi, Led Lenser F1R, First aid kit, neck gaiter, Topeak ratchet some spare batteries, a pen, a lighter and a set of earplugs.



During winter however, I enjoy carrying my Leatherman Charge in an older gen Charge premium sheath, combined with a Bit Card, a Led Lenser P3 and mini Bic lighter.

Although it's a setup I fully enjoy, I feel as if the Bit Card compartiment is a tad to tight...


I will get one of those Skinths sooner or later...
