For the 18th Anniversary, we're going to do several giveaways to show how much we appreciate our members. To start things off, this is for a SOG BO PowerLock

https://sogknives.com/powerlock-eod-black-oxide-with-nylon-pouch/

To win this tool, tell us below what's your favorite memory from the forum over the years. This will be a good time to reminisce, tell tales, and have a campfire story time for the new members.

I'll close a winner this coming Tuesday (7/9)

Ok, I'll break the ice. My favorite memory was April 2016 when I finally joined this esteemed group of blade/sak/mt enthusiasts. I had been a collector and lurker of the forum for years, but finally joined and am so very glad that I did. I realize most people are on several social media platforms, but this is pretty much the only one for me. Nobody outclasses the fine people on this forum. Cheers to all of you.  :cheers:

And we're off! :like:
My favorite memory from MTO would have to be the Nessmuk Challenge, September of 2020. Nix and Comis came up with my favorite challenge of all time. I had a ton of fun with that challenge, seeing everyone's Nussmuk trios of tools, stunning photos, Nessmuk's wise quotes, and just enjoying the unparalleled atmosphere of kinship between us.
Every time I look at that badge, I reminisc. What a challenge, what a month that was. :cheers:

I’ve been here for almost 2 years.  In that time I’ve made it to the no life club.  I have so many posts not because I’m posting a pic everyday, but because I’m doing challenges and replying to other folks here , engaging with the community.  Learning about MTs and so much more.

My first challenge I’m pretty sure was a Wave 30 day challenge.  I was instantly welcomed and found a great community of like minds.  That is the most memorable challenge for me.  Every subsequent challenge and post I’ve made has been the same type of interactions. 

Let’s put it this way: I shared my first Wave on Reddit and it was so toxic I stopped after a short time.  I shared it here and cultivated a new hobby with a supportive group. Now my multitool and SAK is an extension of me.

I also learned from here about the joys of Alox SAKs. I never really thought I’d like one until reading more here and like the challenge became an Alox addict.

My favorite memory is a tie between my hosting of the 2022 EDC fixed blade challenge and participating in the 2020 Nessmuck challenge that ReamerPunch just reminded me of.  I have, in fact, really enjoyed all of the challenges I've been in since joining MTO and I'd be in a couple of challenges that are going on now except I just had to replace my computer and I need to get an adapter to upload pictures from my camera.

I joined just over 3 years ago and was lurking before that. I enjoy learning about all the different multitools people use and what they are using them for. This place is a wealth of information and a great community overall...very rare these days.

One of my favorite all time threads is Jothra's 30 day Huntsman challenge...https://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,46255.0.html

My favorite challenge that I have participate in so far is the 60 day Spirit challenge from last year.

I joined in early 2021.  My wife was a nurse at the time, Covid was in some roaring stage, and she had friends nearly die after exposure at work.  I worried about her every minute of every day.  Meanwhile, my job had gone remote, but was tanking.  In short, my world looked pretty bleak. 

I don't recall which posts caused me to sign up, but I was so glad I did.  Reading posts from around the world about knives and gadgets was such a welcome distraction from the chaos of life.  Once I completed my first challenge, I was totally hooked.   Of course it cost  me a small fortune because I started collecting SAKs.   :rofl:

I'm very happy to be participating in the Anniversary challenge right now, with so many of the people I've come to like on this forum!

     Gather around the campfire here and settle down.  Bring Old Uncle Beanie some of them smores and I'll tell all of you nippers a real outdoor scary story.
       Now I ain't sayin that being out here in the woods is a dangerous thing.  Not at all.  Old Beanie has been circulatin out here for most near 60 years.  Mostly doin important work for the govermint.  What was that?  Yeah, I had to keeps tabs on how many varmints they is out here for them fellers up in Washington.  Pole cats, muss rats, coons, minks, all of them fur barin things.  That's important stuff.  Plus I done some real important work collectin golden seal and sang. 
       Anyways, I was out checkin traps when I heard something steppin on dry limbs back in the woolies.  Just a little snap here and there.  It was dry as a church picnic and any critter movin around had to make some noise.  I stopped to listen.  Always stop to listen.  You never know.  Might be a bear, or a rabid fox, or a game warden or a johnny sneakum that likes to steal stuff out of your traps.
       I reached over to my pack basket to see what kind of anti-critter deevice I could find.  Trap lure, nope.  Dirt shaker, no good.  Trowel?  I guess that's it.  It was him or me with only a long handled dirt trowel for a weapon.  Then IT walked out of the thicket.  Seven foot tall if it was an inch.  Hair all over except for its bare belly and long spindly laigs.  Slobber droolin down its long teeth.  Bright yeller eyes.  A dogman.  I had only seen one years ago, and that was from quite a ways off.  They don't get less scary close up.  I said to myself, Beanie Old Boy, don't run.
         That was when I fell off the cliff.  It takes a while for the brain to get control of all the other parts of a man's body.  In the split second that it took for the message to get around about not runnin, the rest of me had done went on auto-pilot.  Next thing I knew my legs was runnin and takin the rest of me along for the trip.  I heard a loud deafenin screamin noise that like to bust my ear drums.  I figured out that was me, and since it didn't help with the runnin any, I quit.  That was when I tangled up in the vines and got throwed off the cliff.
         Actually it wasn't a cliff, just a deep gully.  Too deep to reach the ground with my head anyway.  Since at that time my head was the closest thing to the ground.  So there I hung like a slab of bacon.  What happened to the dogman, you say?  Why he's right there, RIGHT BEHIND YOU!  No sit down.  I'm just foolin with you.  Stop throwin stuff. 
         Well, I ain't gonna lie.  I ain't for sure what happened to the dogman.  Later on, I saw where that cussed thing had gone through my pack basket and stole all my provisions.  Pop tarts and sardines.  Vienna sausages and such.  Bit right through the cans.  Didn't even use the pop tops.  Anyways where was I?
         Like I said, I was a-hangin upside down from some vines tangled around my laig.  I had done lost track of all my kit durin my little panic.  All except for this here plier thing that Old Beanie had clipped to his britches.  My little grandbaby had give me this thing for my birthday.  Only one thing to do.  I would have to cut off my laig to get down.  I dreaded it some, but decided I might as well get started.
         That plier thing has one of them blades that is half blade and half teeth.  Didn't take long to cut my leg off.  Then I fell on my head.  What's wrong with you all?  Eat too many smores?  Oh, I see.  No, Old Beanie had this here wooden leg already.  All I did was cut off the leather strap what holds it on.  After that, I just clumb back out of the gully and pulled my leg back up by the vines and patched the strap back together the best I could with a strip off my britches leg.  Them plier things sure can come in handy.  I'd advise all of you to put in your order with Santy Claus early for one of em. 
         What happened to the dogman?  Back into the woods, I reckon.  Probably still there.  I think I could stand one more o them smores.  Thankee.

I’m too new to have a memory, but being able to write  about the Multitool Mindset and know that you guys  would know what I mean will become a fine one.  It’s not often that you belong right away, but that’s the Feeling I get here at MTO, and that is a memory to look forward to.

Long story, boring story ...so i'll make it short.
Messed up my Leatherman, didn't want to warranty it, hence i felt the need for speed..oh noh...that's from a movie :D.
I felt i could customise it, adapt something, put my own signature to it,  remeber: it was also the period of American Choppers ... and my pursuit for happiness, damn... my pursuit for knowledge led me to find this forum. From that moment on, many Leathermans and many mods i have done, some i Have posted some not, some vague collection have started  and... here i am, chasing that SOG  :tu:
Ps: Living in Europe, land of Dracula, Victorinox is the way to go, yet i 'm into LMN...a few years back it was bit hard to get one...anyway, i'm derayling...My2cents about SOG...they continue to innovate and it will be interesting to see who gets the Multitool Crown in the future

I have a memory from way back :ahhh

It was around 2009 and apparently the option to change your own username became openly available :whistle:

It was utter chaos for a while :ahhh :ahhh :ahhh because many had decided to change their names (even moderators!) :ahhh :ahhh :ahhh

The only way to tell who anyone was was their avatars :o If you had just joined and didn't know whose avatar was what then you were just out of luck :dwts: you can only imagine the chaos :rofl:

As the chaos was running rampant, the admin and mods decided to give us a cut off date to when the option to change your username would be shut off, as the day approached, many changed their names back to the original or something similar :salute: but of course we had a few let the day go by and had forgotten :whistle: :rofl:

Those few were complaining but it pretty much fell on deaf ears because they had been like 2 weeks advance notice and they also had been plenty active in the time :D

This is one of the main reason why we are kind of strict on the changing you username policy :rofl:

This makes me smile just remembering it :D :D :D

  Learning of and the taunting of not having a Victorinox Spirit multitool. And to think I stopped carrying the Leatherman Charge TTi since getting a Spirit. Only got better when I found one with a serrated butter blade -- wished I could find a new one or one that does not have its wire cutters all mangled for sale.

  Vic Spirit has been the best multitool I have used, and can secretly carry one at work. Also did buy a Climber, which was suggested as a first knife option from Victorinox. So yeah, this forum has LOTS of things going for it, and I pop in from time to time. Worked keeps me perty exhausted lately.

Glad to see you are still kicking around man!

You can contact Victorinox Customer Service and they will sort out that plier head issue for you if you want.  They seem to have a pretty quick turn around time on stuff like that, assuming you can manage for a couple of weeks without it.

It all started in December of 2020. I was simply looking for a good modern pocket knife to buy. Somehow, that seach morphed into looking at multitools, which led me to this site. I believe it was some posts by gerleatherberman that convinced me that collecting electrician multitools would not be a silly thing to do. So I took my Christmas money (and a wee bit more  :rofl:) and bought most of the readily available electrician multitools.

Since January 1 , 2021, I have accumulated a gajillion multitools, pocket knives, one piece tools, and SAKs. What's even better has been the good times I have had and the friendships I have formed since becoming a member of MTo  :tu:

I have a couple favorite memories from not long after I joined in September of 2021. One was having Echotech suggest I should join the initial Delemont Challenge with a Victorinox Evolution 23 that was a recent birthday gift. Another is seeing the mystery box Sos24 sent out around that time, and the eight things that were in it. It sure has grown by leaps and bounds thanks to the generosity of this board!

Culling of the knife and multi herds in progress...

I don't know how to pick a single favorite moment from all the good times around here. I think the thing I'm most grateful for is all the help I had with my MP customization earlier this year. I'd probably have muddled through without you guys, but I'm sure it would've been a pain in the butt and not come out half as well.

This was a fun read and I have been away for some time so I don't feel comfortable jumping right in to a GAW but I will still share a memory.

I have been a member since 2017 I think and was looking for my first plierbased MT I think but just a few years later it was time for my first SAK mod and the knowledge and help I got from this place was just amazing I have my two favorite mods in rotation (one celidor and one alox with the same tools) and a bladeless sak for when the occasion demands it.

Other than that it's always fun with the challenges

    Everyone got my campfire story yesterday.  This month is both my one-year anniversary along with MTO's 18th.  It has been a privilege to host the MTO Anniversary Challenge.  All the members who are participating in this challenge are providing the fun and variety and hopefully I haven't been chasing too many away with my foolishness.  Perhaps this challenge might become something memorable in days to come for all the current members and those who join later.  As for me, it is the friendships that made it all memorable.  Best wishes.  Gary (IMR)

Thank you David for this awesome giveaway.   :cheers:   Here is a story for the newbies to enjoy.

Chapter One, a multitool review.

Chapter Two, selling the multitool.

Chapter Three, test to destruction.

IMO it's worth the 21 page read. And the link on the last page still works.   :D

While one of my favourites was the one I kicked off asking about members' first SAKs (story behind their first SAK, and if they still had 'em), my favorite was whichever thread first revealed to me Felix Immler's superb videos.

In 2015 I came back to SAKs, after around 15 years of not using them. I also left the city where I grew up and moved some 400 km away.

When I was in school, I regularly went on vacations. Every time I took a SAK with mit. Mostly a Champion.

Fast forward. Since more than 7 years I'm visiting MTO.org. SAKs are connected with childhood memories. Every visit here feels like coming home...
