Day 30

Kid dropped something in the car and couldn’t reach with my hand. Pliers retrieved it.

Day 30



No use day. How's everyone carrying their Spirit? I usually grab the sheath on the weekends, but during the week it sits in my back pocket with a bandana.
I carry my Spitit usually in hip on modded Gerber Centerdrive sheat ( added buckle after velcro weared off). This sheat is maybe on of the best vertical carry i have ever used. Sometimes it just goes in my pocket, im thinking soon buying pocketclip to it, but im not sure do i want that clip for my SwissTool MXBS or my Spirit (diffrent colors)

With the exception of the Velcro I agree Antti.  The material is durable.  I carry my MP 600 in mine.

Nice MV, "It's my life" got a pretty cool MV way back when too.

I see this once in awhile, and still puts me in awe every time.  That's some serious equipment. :o :tu:

Great job everyone on completing the first 30 days.  I had to drop out after being called away for another week after I'd already started a week late due to my travels.  I expect I might be hitting the road again before this next month is over but I have been following the thread all along when I had internet access.   :cheers:
Alan, sorry to see you go, definitely come back as often as you want!  Safe travels!

Nice use!  I don't really need a pliers usually on a day-to-day basis, but absolutely love having one when I go camping, pliers are perfect for grabbing pot or pot lid off when cooking.

Only Tools Matters
I tried retro fit the Spirit pocket clip onto a Swisstool, but as you can see there is difference between clip hole and it does affect how well the clip would lock onto the chassis. 

You could sort of screw the Spirit clip onto a Swisstool no problem, but it will be tilted to the side and the clip couldn't latch onto the clip hole at all, since the designs are quite different.

Missed posting the last few days. Trying to get stuff done around the house. Still carrying. I used the large flathead to turn the water off to a urinal that was not draining properly. Fun stuff. Used the pliers to bend a locker hook that wasn’t sitting properly. No action shots, but here’s a glamour shot.

That's actually my experience too.  I find, though, that the very day I don't have a pair on me is when I get asked if I have a multitool in me  :facepalm:  That's a nice part to carrying a Swisschamp often.  I still have a small pair of pliers on a knife based tool.  I have to say that I understand my son's love of the Spirit.  It's pretty much everything you could ever waiin a compact package.

Roc, I love the grain of the wood you use for your backdrop.
What is that?
