A couple of months ago I purchased half a dozen used Spartans from the MTO store. When they arrived I stripped off the scales, cleaned, polished and oiled them .
Since then any good deed done for me has been met with a question from me. “What’s your favourite colour”. I then pop the appropriate colour scales onto a Spartan and gift it to them.,

hey, I did that too!  :D :cheers:

those two,
me too!

and a MP600, several SRM, three Cold Steel, three or more Opinels, a LM Kick, at least a dozen SAKs to several different people, many NITECORE TUBE lights to all family and friends...if I have had it for a while, and don't use it, I try to give it away to someone who will use it instead of selling it or letting it collect dust  :tu:
Don't forget the BlackTip. :pok: :)


Thanks again, TP.
Don't forget the mighty "CHAINED REBAR"


Thanks G-Man   :hatsoff:
You really showed some "Rebar Love" with that one. :whistle:

I've given away probably 6 Swisstools and 3 Spirits over the 20 plus years I've carried a Swisstool.  I have plans to give out about 12 Classics hidden around the company Christmas Party coming up in a couple of weeks.  The one lucky person who finds the only Yellow Classic will get a Spirit XBS.

And for the people already own SAK's it has been a harvester for my father and an explorer for a very good friend of mine.

Job well done Kotts...
The EDC use, and love their recipiants have of those two compacts inspired me to get one all my own,  It makes a great EDC companion to the Swisstool or Spirt I cary daily

Thanks G-Man   :hatsoff:
You really showed some "Rebar Love" with that one. :whistle:
Yes sir! That one was fun for sure. The chain was the gift and the Rebar was just attached to it. :D
I really had a brain fart when I made my list.  :facepalm:

Thank you, Douglas! :cheers:

You're a very generous man, Douglas! The '98 SwissTool you gifted me is still a jewel in the collection. Thank you. :)
One of these days I'll get back to an MT Titan overview comparison. :ahhh

The future Yellow Classic owner is going to be in for an immense(and pleasant) surprise. :climber:

I gave my cousin a ST300 and Micra combo pack after he gifted me a Victorinox Fireman 111mm that I like. Another cousin "borrowed" my 2nd Gen Leatherman Wave and I don't expect to ever get it back.
