Hello from Southern California

September 15, 2017, 02:15:52 AM
Hello Multi-Tool members,
I got hooked into Swiss Army knives when I visited my local Fedco Department Store back in the late 80s. They had a nice big display behind the counter. I purchased a Swisschamp and that led to a Tinker, and then a Hunter later on. I stopped buying SAKs for about 10 years until recently :Amazon had the Deal of the Day with the Climber knife. Ever since that happened, my fascination carried over to Leatherman starting with the Wave, Rebar, Super Tool 300, etc. Recently I got into Gerber MP600s and now they are multiplying in my drawer. I think I have a problem
Currently I carry a Gerber MP400 and a Style CS. The next day it could be a Rebar and a Micra.

I always thought
GAS
was for Guitar Acquisition Syndrome for Musicians or
GAS
- Gear Acquisition Syndrome for Photographers. I guess there is such thing as
MAS
- Multi Tool Acquisition Syndrome

welcome mate
Solving problems you didn't know you had in the most obscure way possible
"And now, it's time to hand this over to our tame race axe driver. Some say, he can live in the forest for six months at a time without food, and he knows of a secret tribe of only women where he is their God. All we know is, he's call the Styx!" - TazzieRob

Welcome. You've got a lot of catching up after a 10 year hiatus from buying SAKs.
