The ship wherein Theseus and the youth of Athens returned from Crete had thirty oars, and was preserved by the Athenians down even to the time of Demetrius Phalereus, for they took away the old planks as they decayed, putting in new and stronger timber in their places, in so much that this ship became a standing example among the philosophers, for the logical question of things that grow; one side holding that the ship remained the same, and the other contending that it was not the same.

So if you gradually replace the real MP600 parts with parts from the fake one, when is it no longer a real MP600? :D

OR. Since Gerber just assembles the 600 in the US, and presumably the parts are made overseas, do the knock-off parts become Gerber parts when installed into the MP600?
Note: I am no philosopher(or study thereof), but I do like multi-tools. And that was a great philosophical quagmire to contemplate that you quoted, Pablo. Thank you! :clap:
