Nope. With a possible home purchase in the future, I’m (trying to) abstaining from buying any more.

:salute:.  Figured I'd bury this GAW here since it was directed at a specific audience.   :D

Oh, you think you're so smart!

i will admit,i wasn't into Leatherman at the beginning,my first was a bucktool,in 96 or so.
when the wave was introduced,i was infatuated,and got 1 from my dad in 99 [i gave him the Buck,which he still has].
i got a Surge in 06 or 07,and an ST not long after.
i only started "collecting" in 2018,when i got a PST in a trade.
i felt like kicking myself for waiting so long. i dig that model,and will get more [i got a sideclip in 2019,and a beat up PST 2 a few months ago].
i almost did not have a PST,and let me tell you,it was pretty close. :D

Sync sorry brother.  Not sure why I missed you?  You posted in this thread before I announce my GAW offering info to Jim so you're in.

Ahh but I hadn't said I haven't owned one and wanted one, as per the rules.
It's OK, take me off the list, the shipping here would cripple you anyway! I'll find a PST here one day...

Good luck everyone else!  :salute:

Well, they're not tools if they aren't used.  ;)

Yep, just toys or nick-knacks.

Considering the condition of some of my knives, NICK-knacks.

Long ago I realized that buying real tools for my young kids was cheaper than buying toy tools..... Who wants to pay $30 for a set of plastic tools, when you can come up with a cheap set of real tools at the dollar store for less?  ::)

Nice GAW Aloha :cheers:
Nix and I have been talking about the PST recently as I've never owned one. (don't think I've even seen one in the flesh).
I think the lack of woodsaw plus the (minor) discomfort of the handle design would put me off using it setting as I have a Spirit, Wave and MP400  at hand.
Good luck to the winner and once again, nice one Aloha for your generosity in this and all the other GAW's you're currently running  :cheers:

Real tools for kids is something that should be done :salute: I had a real hammer and the Handy Andy tools I had when I was a kid were all fairly real tools as well :o I still have the little metal handsaw and the hammer that came with it :salute: My parents watched me and made sure I didn't hurt myself but once they were sure I wouldn't then off to the back yard to play with them :D

Well, they're not tools if they aren't used.  ;)

I use a lot of them but you can't use them all :whistle: I am a collector as well because I like the engineering behind Mts in general but some aren't as practical to carry, so they don't get used :cheers: I rarely sell stuff like that because I am.very certain when I purchase it that I will either use it or just have it to keep :tu:

Yep, so far.... (of course, I didn't say what age I gave what tools to them).... None of them have their own guns so far....

Ah yes, I had a Handy Andy set when I was a kid, too. Got it used at a yardsale, I believe. My parents were big on yard saling. We called it "going yard sailing" as in sailing through other people's yards, to see what we could harvest from the sea of used merchandise.....

Today is my MTO Anniversary.  I joined in 2013 and to celebrate I am giving one of you fine members a PST in the original leather sheath.     

Here are the rules. 

1. I chose your name from reading this thread and you sharing you've never had a PST or PST2 before.
 
2. If you have a PST or PST2 coming or have either now or ever had either then please remove your name.  This GAW is for PST newbies.  The PST2 is close enough so I omitted y'all. 

3. Your country allows such a tool.

4. You still want to try a PST for the first time.

5. You plan to carry/use this tool not keep it for collection purposes.     

Etcetera, and so on.......

I am sorry I didn't add names of those from this thread who stated they were not interested in a PST.  I also didn't add your name if you've had a PST 2 since it's close enough.  If I missed someone who stated they didn't have either a PST or PST2 sorry.  Let me know and point me to where you stated that and are interested.  My goal is to get a PST into the hands of those who have been interested in owning a PST to use and just haven't got around to getting one or its hard to come by in your area.  If you are looking for a MINT or NEW tool for the collection then please remove your name.  I will be sending a user to the winner so you can see what all the fuss is about.       

Once every one on the list responds in this thread stating they meet the rules then I'll ask Gareth ( pretty please ) who started this thread to pick a winner by random number generator.  If Gareth cannot then I'll sign someone else  :D

Interesting, your anniversary date on here is the same as my daughter's birthday.  She's a wee bit older than your MTO age though.

I've never owned a PST/PST2 so it would seem I qualify and if so, may I please be considered.

I may have missed your post in this thread?  I pulled only those who posted in this thread stating they have never owned a PST.
