HI Zenostoic,

In truth I don't notice much difference.  I bought mine 2nd hand, so it had already been sharpened once.  I guess it's a little sharper than typical, but that cuts both ways since I think it's also harder to sharpen.

Thank you Myron, very interesting!!

Leatherman Tools / Re: MAY 2024 MICRA 30 Day Challenge

I’ve thought about how we might be able to do a “30 Challenges Challenge”

There are a number of iconic or  quintessential tasks for a multitool… some are mundane daily tasks, and some are rare but representative of the self-reliance that a multitool carries.

It might be something that spans a whole year, with the 30 tasks to be completed as the need arises. It would run concurrently with other challenges.

The list of tasks could include:

- Make a stove out of a can.

- use pliers at camp for something other than lifting a pot

- cut something loose in a time-sensitive situation.

- open a bottle or can where no other standard opener is available

- open a coconut (my personal favorite)

Interesting concept for a challenge

I am tempted by one to take with me to work (if I can get one in the UK) rather than take my expensive (but very good) Charge TTi.

Swiss Army Knights Forum / Re: What bladeless models would you like to see?

« Last post by ReamerPunch on Today at 08:13:42 AM »

There are some modern edc problems that others have tried to answer.

Ruike released the Tech Tool SAK-alike knives, with pocket clips for easier pocket carry, screws for maintenance and adjustments, G10 scales that are durable.

Leatherman released their SAK-alikes, with pocket clips, locking tools, and all oho tools.

Roxon is designing a modular pocket knife to allow custom load-outs.

I would love a pocket clip on my Farmer X. I'd love to be able to remove the blades on my Deluxe Tinker to be able to carry it everywhere.

If Victorinox releases a bladeless model that works for me, I'll get it.
