Surge's other bottle opener

[ratslash7]

I had some friends over on Saturday and one of them brought some imported beers. I had my Surge on my belt and instead of opening the iffy combo' can/bottle opener, I used the hinge end of the folded tool using the "disposable lighter method". It worked very well. In fact, better than a disposable lighter.

I thought this worth sharing with the only freaks who would care.

Err thanks... I think

It's just that you can open a bottle with a Surge (perhaps others) without opening the tool. Just pull it from the sheath, pop the top and put it back. I guess everyone already knew this.

I didn't know!

My comment was about the "freaks" bit

[ratslash7]

My friends call me a freak cuz I have 7 Leathermans and a dozen or so knives. They think it's freaky that I carry tools with me and fix things on the spot instead of waiting till I get near a toolbox.

" That freak fixed my car door."

" That freak fixed the lamp."

"That freak can see in the dark and he sewed my button back on."

I thought Freak was a good thing.

That story reminds me of this video. Still one of my all time favorites!




(but then again, I am somewhat of a freak!)

Yup, The shirtless guy seems to be using his swisstool in the manner that I suggest. Using the end of the tool as a bottle opener. Much more convenient than using the actual bottle opener.

I shall have to try that.

I agree that being called a freak can be a compliment
