Core and Surge under $5
on: January 25, 2009, 06:17:44 PM
No it's not a typo. I found this site - Next Day PC that has them for that price. I ordered three of each for about $50 with shipping. Now be aware that I believe this is too good to be true so I used a Discover card with a one time use number. (I love that.) They should be here this week so I'll let you know how it goes. If you want to try anyway here's the link. http://www.nextdaypc.com/main/search/results.aspx?txt=leatherman

I DO NOT KNOW IF THIS IS FOR REAL YET SO BUYER BEWARE.  :D

I'll keep you posted.

Guys, I googled the Original Manufacturer Part # that they have listed and those are the nylon sheaths only.

Keep us posted though.  I'm interested in seeing if they do have Surges and Cores for less than $5 (for sure I would order!)

According to google, it's the Surge nylon sheath (#934890) and Core leather sheath (#934885).

Probably is just the sheath(s). Didn't think of checking the part number.   ::) I just emailed them. I'll see what they say. I also edited the title.

Just got a message on my answering machine. The web site was wrong but they aren't sure which would ship. They were trying to hold the shipment. Maybe you'll luck out. I'll let you know if I actually get a package.

Too right, you just wait until he realises that by "Sideclips" I actually am only actually sending him some sheaths :D

I used to come here a lot.

Those would be the special invisible "air light" sheaths for the Sideclip, right?
