Number 5 is a secret- watch out though, it's a tricky one!

Hi Def,

I won't jump into this as my lense won't deal with the width. Your collection is really cool. I became interested in multi-function stuff at around age 6 or 7 - Cub Scouts. Dad let me have a scout knife around age 12 and harped about dull knives cut their owners (he was a doctor) and sharp knives cut what the are supposed to

Got my first SAK when I was 14 or 15. That was some 400+ SAK's ago. When the plier tools started, I looked at the Leatherman and said it seems like the handles might hurt. Bought a Buck Tool 360. Well, it has gone downhill from there. I now have some 100+ pliers tools, and, like you, my list of "NEEDS" is longer than what I have.

I'm a Mechanical Engineer with my graduate studies in metallurgy. I've always been fasciinated with the engineering concepts of putting all these cool features in SAK's and multis. Happily, my wife of 42 years looks at this as OK!!!!!!!

Cheers - Joe

I think I know all of them. What is #5?

If I recall correctly, #5 was a rather timely aquisition for Def.

Congrats Joe, it sounds like you've found the perfect companion!

Would that make it the Stanley Watch tool then?

Grant Lamontagne · **Reply #334 on:** February 05, 2007, 11:39:56 AM

That's exactly what it is!

Anyone care to guess the tools? This is most of my full sized tools, although some ar on vacation, and some others have yet to arrive. Then there were the ones that won't stand freely by themselves.

Hmmm, I count (14) Leathermans, (4) SOGs, (5) Vics, one Schrade, and one miscellaneous. It appears to me as if Gerber is rather underrepresented in the line-up Def.

Grant Lamontagne · **Reply #336 on:** February 11, 2007, 04:03:29 AM

My Gerbers are visiting other members at this time... but yes, I don;t have nearly enough of them yet!

Great photos Dunc, especially the first two! (I like what I've seen of your new camera so far.)

Grant Lamontagne · **Reply #339 on:** February 17, 2007, 06:09:44 PM

I know it's just a reflection, but I think a red anodized SwissTool would be gorgeous!

Love the pic of the SOG.

Served on a bed of Seaweed

I must stop taking pics of the SOG and send it back to Def

I'm just glad to see you are enjoying it!

I recently obtained my first SOG multi-tool. It's a nice, well built multi-tool, with the exception of this one not having anywhere for me to attach my lanyard... aaargh!

Grant Lamontagne · **Reply #344 on:** February 18, 2007, 07:44:18 PM

That's odd that your Pocket Party Pooper doesn't have a lanyard attachment- mine does, as you can see from this comparison with a PowerLock.

Def

J-sews · **Reply #345 on:** February 18, 2007, 07:49:24 PM

Odd indeed. And I just noticed that Supratentorial doesn't have a lanyard attachment on his either.

Grant Lamontagne · **Reply #346 on:** February 18, 2007, 08:04:08 PM

I noticed the same thing....

What about you Bob? You have one?

Def

Stormdrane · **Reply #347 on:** February 18, 2007, 08:58:30 PM

Yes, definately odd. From various photos I'd seen, I thought they all came with a lanyard attachment, guess not. I emailed SOG asking if they had something I could use, so I guess I'll have to wait for a response. It's not a proper knife/multi-tool/flashlight if I can't put a lanyard on it.

I think I got mine from the same seller Supratentorial did.

Yes.......and no.

I've got a few variations of the Pocket Power Plier (Deluxe, gold TiNi, black oxide finish) None of them have the little lanyard attachment. But the Paladin PT-510 has it, as does another variation that SOG made for Harley Davidson.

I dunno why.

Grant Lamontagne · **Reply #349 on:** February 18, 2007, 10:59:13 PM

Looks like I am the special one then...

Haha... yeah Def... you're definately "special"

prime77 · **Reply #351 on:** February 19, 2007, 01:26:25 AM

Mine has one to, can I be "special" too

J-sews · **Reply #352 on:** February 19, 2007, 01:48:51 AM

HEY!! What's the deal with all those different blades and drivers prime?

..........have you been substituting blades and not telling us?! (or did I forget?)

prime77 · **Reply #353 on:** February 19, 2007, 02:01:24 AM

I've changed them again since I took that picture. And heres a new one. The removable pocket clip from LM folders screws nicely to the pocket pliers

prime77 · **Reply #354 on:** February 19, 2007, 02:03:29 AM

It works good if you don't mind those gear teeth sticking out of the top your pocket

CacherX4 · **Reply #355 on:** February 19, 2007, 02:05:46 AM

Prime.....you have single-handedly forced me to find a way to buy a SOG now...Thanks

All that was holding me back (besides the $$) was the lack of a pocket clip!! I could probably get past the gear teeth sticking out.

If only J-Sews and Def could get a small commission on the tools and SAKs that their pics and reviews have made me buy.

I don't think the gear teeth should be a problem. It kinda looks cool sticking out of the pocket.

Grant Lamontagne · **Reply #357 on:** February 19, 2007, 03:03:27 AM

Now there's an idea- get a commission off each tool sold by some poor member drooling over a new tool!

I'll bet the site would be a hell of alot prettier if that happened!

I think before I found SOSAK I had only 2 SAKs, now I have close to twenty. And I thought I had a good multitool collection till I became a member here

Grant Lamontagne · **Reply #359 on:** February 19, 2007, 03:57:51 AM

When I took over in SOSAK I had maybe 10-15 SAKs... now I have about 200..

And as for the multitool collection, I thought I had a good collection going too, but some of these guys make me look like a newb!
