I wanna be Chako
on: July 16, 2021, 04:24:21 AM
Ok, yeah, I do.  Kinda but not really.  I hemmed and hawed about whether to post the pic in Chako's thread, but thought ultimately it's about his collection, not a collection in general.  I sort of consider Chako to be my spirit animal (due respect to First Nations populations) in terms of being a bit of an inspiration or perhaps more likely a rationalization/justification for buying more multitools but whatever.  I've always loved Swiss Army Knives and Leatherman is a natural extension of that.  I have a definite collector gene with some OCD mixed in I try to manage.  My first Leatherman was the orange Wave and it's probably ideal.  I've subsequently picked up a number of other tools in the interim with the intent of equipping my wife and daughter with MaxPedition bags that include Leatherman tools, among others.  I also have a bit of a flashlight "fetish" for lack of a better word.  Mostly Olight, but I do like me some Maglite's, my first love in the flashlight world. 

So now a few Skeletools, a Rebar, a pair of Signals and a Wave make up the collection.

 :tu: I'm sure Chako's pictures are the spark for many of collectors.  I know it was for me as well.  Nice start to what I'm sure will be a wonderful collecting experience.

If you go with anything less than the 26' U-Haul van you will be leaving stuff behind.

Remember to bring the choice steaks to bribe the guard rottweillers.  I'm not sure what the "guard cat" prefers though, and that is the one that will cause severe damage if not properly bribed .....    :dunno:   :rofl:   :rofl:   :rofl:   :popcorn:

Those people over on Reddit are a bit different I have noticed :whistle: :D

Sorry to hear about the cats as well :-\ My dog just died a while back that I have had for 14 years, so I know it is a bit hard at times :salute:

Always comedy when others have such strong opinions on matters that have ZERO to do with their quality of life.
