Poncho65, did you see that the Suspension NXT got voted Best Budget Multitool by Field & Stream?
https://www.fieldandstream.com/outdoor-gear/best-multitool/

Echotech, no mention of the Hammerhead, I'm sorry.


I had not seen that :o it does make sense because this is a $30 and even with everything I might hold against it :whistle: it hasn't really let me down :salute: So far, overall it  is a good tool and even though I may not ever have it in my tool rotation  :D it has been good to make myself try it :tu:

Never seen this one in the past, is it sour?

I was hoping it would be but no.

Day 23

The Minimaster helped open a denatured alcohol can to refill my spare fuel bottle.



I did need to bring in some back-up to cut and twist some wire for making a handle for my Trangia simmer ring.

Well, they declared the Wingman as the best EDC MT, so it may be fair to question their judgement.

DAY 23
Another work day today and I was required to use a fancy bit of Gucci kit (which I didn't break :tu: )

I rarely have an opportunity to use the cutting hook but it sliced right through the seal like a...cutting hook through butter  :whistle:

You have a real gift for words   :pok:  :D

Doctor told us to not feed him too much food and best keep him slightly hungry, and I could have sworn it's my first time hearing 'donut' and 'chocolate' in sleep talk.

I would have thought the title may go to LM wingman or sidekick, but their prices have increased significantly over the years.
The Wingman got Best EDC Multitool. Seems that smaller size was a key factor for this title.

Best All-Around Multitiool went to the Leatherman Wave Plus.

58mm: Bijou (3), Classic SD (7), Mini Champ Plus (mod), Alox Classic SD, Rambler (3), Companion
65mm: Wenger Esquire
74mm: Executive (2)

91mm: Champion "c", Swiss Champ (4), Explorer (3), Deluxe Tinker, Huntsman, Serrated Spartan/Weekender, Explorer Plus, Deluxe Explorer Plus (mod), Outdoorsman Plus, Champion "a", Champion Plus, Timekeeper Alarm, Golfer
93mm: Pioneer Alox

Great job, good as new! :tu:


I was hoping it would be but no.
:D  Funny my little one have a taste for anything that's sour, he could eat lime or lemon with a straight face.

The Minimaster helped open a denatured alcohol can to refill my spare fuel bottle.

I did need to bring in some back-up to cut and twist some wire for making a handle for my Trangia simmer ring.

I have something similar and one good thing about this kind of stove is it does provide a good seal with whatever fuel being put inside, so it could be easily carried without an extra bottle of fuel. :like:
