Title: What MT is this?
Post by: an0nemus on March 03, 2018, 09:57:38 AM

I'm in a school right now that has an old cabinet display showing various tools. I'm baffled by this MT, though. I vaguely remember seeing this somewhere here in MTO in the past.

What's the make and model?

The tools positions looks like Schrade

Indeed. Schrade tough tool.

Looks to be in there for a long time.
In that case it may be an old gen. which is told to be of quite a decent quality.

That's a FlipGrip.
Chako has covered it before.

Thanks all! So this is a bit hard to find these days. I wonder if the school is open to replace it with a Leatherman

Imo, it's not worth getting paying that price for.. I would like to think that in some odd shops, they would still have this brand new. I have one.. Its awkward to use and the implements are at most clumsy at best... And because of the design, the Blunt nose will not close fully. It will leave a 0.5mm gap at the tip.. It's a weird tool...

I have one, a bit modded now and worn,
but works
