Nope, I'm glad someone is using it!

I'd like to have another if the price/trade was right just to "have"..I don't think it would replace my Powerlock or Swisstool for EDC...the handles are uncomfortable on the old Leathermans :angel:

Use 'em enough though and you build up a callous of scar tissue. Problem solved. :multi:

That's exactly why i prefer the Super Tool 200.  The handles are much more comfortable than the original, and you don't have to deal with the flappy covers of the Powerlock.  The Swisstool is the best of both worlds though--comfort and outside-opening convenience.
