Cos for this tool, I know mostly I will not be using it. It's going straight to my shelf... Looking at the prices when this pops up on ebay, it looks like a very good deal.. Btw, in that odd ball shop, I saw a Variant of the Mp600 that I have not even heard of. It have a special 'L' shaped tool in it. The rest of the implements are pretty much a standard Mp600. If I remember reading it correctly, it is some sort of Variant for "horse hoof mantainence"..That shop owner is rather old. I am quite sure he have no idea what he have or are selling in the shop. His prices tag for MTs are like from 10 yrs ago or even more. Some older people here, have the mentality that "I rather hug it to the grave than to sell you at this price" .. You know what I mean.
How much is the Trailrider?
U$105 is a great deal for a NIB MP650, while U$100 is an OK price for an MP600 trailrider variant

I am more keen on the MP650.. But once I jump, that will start another treasure hunt for the many pliers.. The Trailrider, I am most likely not going for it. Seems like a big premium for the 'L' tool that I have no use for..

The packaging is really old and yellow though.. Lol.. I was waiting if you would asked. I tried to search for this model and your thread in MTO appeared in 2015.. I am actually quite a distant from you though.. I am not too sure about the shipping. It could get ridiculously high...

I'm pretty certain you will never ever come across a chance again like this to grab that Trailrider. It is unbelievably hard to find used, let alone new!I think you'll kick yourself in years to come. The MP650 if it only has one head is much less of a find, it is a good find...but tracking down those heads will be a long a laborious road.Have you considered buying and using as future swap stuff.
Good catch! Why does the 650 not flick? What is the mechanism where the flick buttons usually are?
Quote from: magentus on February 09, 2018, 01:43:30 PMGood catch! Why does the 650 not flick? What is the mechanism where the flick buttons usually are?Instead of the plier sliding mechanism the MP650 has two fixed position clips inside the hanldes which retain/release the different plier heads. This means there is a lot of wasted space inside the handles which could be used to install several longer component tools.

I think most people thinks it operates just like a standard multiplier. So do it, initially. Until I got this. There's no track/rail for plier head to slide in and out, it's fixed. It's a full size pliers!
nice catch! ot some classics in there...and those sheaths

Big fan of LM leather sheaths. Here's my new MP400 in one:
