Here it is. A very reliable tool and definately worth having in any collection.

Here are my two. These have the distinction of being my first multi-tools as they were both purchased in the early 90s to help my dad and I out on the 3D archery range.

:like:
The one I have is like Chako's versions.
I like your version better, because it would be more comfortable to use, Captain Sabretache. :like:
Thanks for posting your examples, Captain and Chako! :)
Will post a photo in a bit. :ahhh

This one is one of the few tools I hadn't gotten around to cleaning up yet. It is on the restore table for a future cleanup. Hopefully it'll look new when finished.
Photos as it is now. :)

Thanks for sharing guys :like: I notice that my model is somewhat different from most of yours. It doesn't have the hex driver on the handle. It looks like a copy of the LM PST .And GLBM I look forward to seeing your restoration, I know you will post pics. And Chako this was my first multitool too given to me by my late father. I think we can both agree the sentimental value is beyond price, You've kept it in amazing condition (not judging GLBM :rofl: )

Thanks. They are fairly good qualitywise considering they saw use on the outdoor range for 4 years. They pulled many arrows out of trees during that time. My copy has patent pending on them. They date around early to mid 90's.

Very cool it was a gift from your late father. :cheers:
No problem with being judged on the condition of my multitools. :rofl:
Reason is, because I'm fairly strict about how multitools look that aren't being used. Where I live, the humidity and heat can cause spotted fever on some tools(like the spots inside the American Camper's handles and around the rivets). :ahhh

Did somebody say "American Camper"??
Here are 2 from sometime around 94-96 along with a Coleman (on the left)
At that point I probably had a dozen of these PST knockoffs with diffrent brand lables. They became a toolbox and loaner tool. I gave quite a few away.
I probably have more of this generation of 'multitool shaped objects' kicking around in old tool boxes that I dont know about, but these are the 3 I have on hand
These things need some love or at least oil...had to use the Kershaw opt to open them
:facepalm:
