Thats an awesome haul you have there and with his signature it makes it pretty special.  Looks like a it was a successful event.

Yes, it was a successful event, Aloha. During the meet and greet with Mr Tim, I find him a soft spoken person and very kind. In fact he signed all the multitools brought by everyone including the tools I have.

I see Donald didn't come as Multitoolman. :D It would have been even cooler of having Leatherman and Multitoolman in one picture. :whistle:

Thanks Gene for posting the pictures was also happy to see you aside from seein Mr. Tim Leatherman :)
Yup, everything good you heard about Mr. Leatherman is true, very soft spoken, very kind and very easy to talk to  :tu:
He really made a effort to talk to us even after the picture taking and the signing of multitools  :tu:  :multi: :multi: :multi: :multi: :multi: :multi: was a very good day. Sorry Multitoolman didn't make it  ;) forgot to get a super hero permit to enter the mall :)

Wow, what a great event! :tu: Congratulations guys!! Looks like you all had a great time. :cheers: Did you have to travel far to get there?
Title: Re: Mr. Tim, Donald and I in Manila
Post by: duckman1975 on February 20, 2014, 03:52:09 AM
I have to travel 4 hours to get to Manila, but it is worth it :) Sad Eddie couldn't come to the event he need to board a plane to get there, just learned about the event 3 days ago.

Post by: J-sews on February 20, 2014, 03:53:29 AM
Nice! But yes, too bad Eddie could not make it. :-\ So what was the event? Is Leatherman opening a new store in Manila?
Title: Re: Mr. Tim, Donald and I in Manila
Post by: duckman1975 on February 20, 2014, 03:57:04 AM
I think it's a promotional tour for the official distributor of Leatherman here in the Philippines, Hahn Enterprises. I saw a Golden Charge :)

You lucky guy. I wish I could meet the man myself. I would love nothing more than to have a signature piece of his. I seriously doubt he would ever visit my village however.

Do you guys have this photo in a higher resolution? I'd like to see that graph a little more clearly. :)

+1. Would be awesome if he'd tour through Canada.

If you click on the image it opens the original in photobucket. It's still not totally clear, but more legible. It's just a graph of sales over time (PST's IIRC)

Yeah, the graph looks like sales, 1983-1993.  '93 was a good year, I'd say...

 :tu: Glad you guys got to experience this!

I think he will visit Canada, he was in Australia before going to the Philippines, he might be circling the globe on a promotional world tour. Fun fact Mr. Leatherman is still travelling with Mrs. Leatherman :) I think you can tell a lot about a guy on how he treats his wife, Mr. Leatherman treats his wife well :)

Yes, she is a lovely lady, and they are a great couple. :) Whether you happen to be a fan of Leatherman products or not, Tim Leatherman deserves a great deal of respect. :salute:

Is there a way to find out where he and the Misses will be next?  I'd love to attend a function.

Amen to that :) Sorry Aloha007, I only know where he had been, don't know where he is going, in hindsight I should have asked :(

I'm so happy your guys got to meet the man himself and get some signed tools.  Awesome day for you and thank you so much for sharing with us.

Of course those tools will never be used again and are now under a plexiglass dome in a sterile environment, covered by a velvet cloth.

Chako - Yep - I bet he would not come and visit your village...
.... But I bet he would come and visit your collection  :D

I think he will visit Canada, he was in Australia before going to the Philippines, he might be circling the globe on a promotional world tour.

Damm - I never knew - I bet he was in Sydney - Missed him - Rats
Re. Mrs. L - I saw a video of them chatting about how it all started up and yep - they semed just lovely
And it seems we have Mrs L to thank for LM as much as Mr L !! - As she funded those three years in the garage and three years looking for a buyer.
