What, no Mini Tool?
I agree!!!
The incredible tool density and simplicity. The elegant tools for a more civilized age.

Indeed. The older LMs seem to be better tools overall. When I decided to make a blunt nose LM, I went with a supertool200 instead of a newer model. I am not really fond of the replaceable cutters anymore after realizing a good condition old school LM plier head cutter will outlast several of the new replacement inserts. The PST and st/st200 are just fantastic. The crunch is another superb tool for what it is. And Peacent, I had no idea how good the older sogs were until I got the power plier. Six tools per handle and rides the belt like a much smaller tool.

Haha I don't mind the replaceable cutters. The deal breaker for me is those stupid bit exchangers. They are bulky and short and don't really add any flexibility over just having nice Phillips and flat head integrated drivers. At the point where you are carrying extra bits you are better off just having a square Phillips shank and a bit adapter that takes regular hex bits. These drivers ruin the new wave for me.
