Happy 19th Anniversary Multitool.org!
on: June 01, 2025, 10:28:48 PM
I've been trying to write this all day and I have been a bit too wordy and probably a bit too maudlin so I asked my old pal Skynet to give it a shot.

As usual, Arnold has a way with words:

To the incredible Multitool.org community,

Can you believe it? Multitool.org is officially 19 years old today! That's right, nineteen years of sharing knowledge, showcasing amazing tools, and building what has become the best online community for multitool enthusiasts anywhere.

It feels like just yesterday we were celebrating another milestone, and here we are, nearly two decades in. This wouldn't be possible without all of you – your passion, your insights, your photos, and your willingness to help each other out.

And what's a Multitool.org anniversary without a bit of celebratory nonsense? As usual, we'll have giveaways, special events, and other fun stuff happening over the next little while. Keep an eye on the forum for all the details!

Here's to many more years of multitool madness!

All through June we will be giving away everything that isn't nailed down, so hold on to your butts!

And thanks for being a part of this place- a forum isn't worth the server space it lives on without each and every one of its members.

Good question. As of right now, the challenge is still on for July.

Happy anniversary to the best forum on the interwebs! :drink:

But you can 👍

AWL the posts from pasts are still present, a search can take you back. Or, visit your favorite thread subject and go to the starting posts.

I did so recently to learn how the MTo membership accepted and embraced the Leatherman  SIGNAL when it was introduced.
 SIGNAL CLUB. (Still active!)
34 pages of history fully intact, with pictures too!

It was a very enlightening review for me.

If I start and end the day above ground, it is a good day!

Hope yours is as good!

Let's try this again now that it's the ACTUAL anniversary!   :ahhh

This isn't the first time I have screwed up the month- you see, MTO was supposed to open on the first of June all those years ago, but I ended up with a bad case of kidney stones and kind of misplaced a month!   :ahhh

As a result, we opened on the first of July instead, and it's been one cool thing after another ever since!

Happy Anniversary to everyone here!  Thanks for being a part of the madness right here on the only forum that matters!

 :cheers:

Happy Anniversary guys! 19 years, wow that's hard to grasp. That's quite an achievement in today's world. So many things on the Internet come and go like the breeze but we have remained steadfast. I put us in the same league as anyone else out there who's been around for two decades or so. Long live MTO! The original multitool resource and hangout.
