It's not that it's a PST that's preventing me from getting one.. I don't get collector's editions of things, because I'm not strictly speaking, a collector.

Even having said that I think the Wingman is better than the PST, I still think the PST is a really good tool, for what it is. It has its shortcomings, but it has its advantages.

The only thing is, I have a PST, and if I wanted another one, I'd go out on ebay and get a used one cheap. In fact, thinking back, I don't remember the last time I bought a brand new (name brand) MT. Oh, wait, yeah, I got a Vic Pioneer recently.

Way overpriced, following in Vic's practice of limited editions?


Besides, I still have my 20 year old PST.  Don't forget that the pliers on this tool are useless because you can't squeeze the handles without gloves.


Now a new Fuse for $50, I'd be all over that.

$275 to collect dust  :facepalm: .. I use my tool , No Thank

Seriously. I use MY original Van Gogh to dig holes in my back yard!

 ;)

People who are getting it are getting it for the SAME reason people get Soldiers with every year stamp. Or who collect stamps, or coins. It is, literally, a COLLECTOR'S ITEM.

Leatherman announced on FB that "select stores" in Belgium would have them in stock soon.

I replied with a question which these "select stores" are...
They didn't even bother to answer...

Up theirs then.

I've e-mailed the Belgian Leatherman distributor about 5 times in the past, and only once got a reply ...  ::)

Anyway, I think I know which "select stores" they were talking about ...  :whistle:

Probably the (chain) store which is responsible for the biggest part of Leatherman sales figures in Belgium, guess that makes you "select" ...  ::)

:facepalm:

How many stores do they have?

And NO store in my province with one on stock?!
Wtf?
Only available on order and ready for pickup in 1-2 business days.

:facepalm:

Then again, for €299 I'll buy myself some more seized, second hand SAKs :whistle:
