Nice pic!  That's a great combo buddy ! 
Day 1

Great first day pics everyone! Didn't have anything happen at work today that needed the 600, so I got a shot in the work truck today while gathering some signs from an event :cheers:

I was surprised.  Weight of older one is 7.6 ounces, MP600 is 8.2 ounces, at least on my scale.
Rest in peace ColoSwiss, you will always be remembered.

I am too.  I know the 600 is a bit bigger than it seems.  It's a good deal heavier too.  It's actually up there in the Swisstool range.
Edit: The Swisstool is 9.8 ounces so it's right in the middle.  The Spirit is 7.6 ounces.

 :hatsoff: Thanks Vicman!  I was surprised at how big the 600 is.  It hides it well in its design.

Day 01
Family photo time.  MP, MP400, and MP600 Pro-Scout version.  The MP was my first regularly carried pliers based tool. I got it around 1994.

Day 02
Family pic number 2. Meet the cousins!
Left to right The Military Provisional Tool (MPT), The MP600 Pro-Scout, The Center Drive, The Paul Chen/CAS Hanwei Professional tool from China that has shears instead of pliers, and underneath everyone and trying to look cool is the Dual Force. This picture makes me think I don't have nearly enough Gerber Multitools.

DAY 1 FOR ME

Thanks to the kindness of FB, I now have a Gerber MP600 Bluntnose Multiplier and it came a day earlier than expected! :)

It is the exact one I wanted! :woohoo:

I used the serrated blade to cut down a couple of boxes.
