This impulse buy didn't hurt much at all.
on: November 16, 2009, 04:54:44 AM
I picked up a BO PST and a Victorinox Solitaire off of the Bay for $9 shipped.

The PST looks a bit beat but I'm not worried.

No guilt here :)

Was it a TSA resale?  They seem to have some pretty decent deals on some of those sales.  Good find.   :tu:   I picked up a PST II yesterday, not as good a deal as your's.  I wanted this one because I wanted one with a PST II stamp on it.  My other PST II doesn't have the PST II stamp on the handles.

Good find Crouton,does the BO PST have a date in it?? :salute:
So, I received the PST in the mail today and although it was grimy and a little rusty it's actually in good shape.  The BO finish is only worn off of one side of the plier head.

Overall this is a fine tool for the money.  I'll post pics later this week.

OK so the PST cleaned up very nicely, it had some rust on it but mostly it was just dirty.  Date codes are 1093 and 0893.

I had to reshape and resharpen the blade because the tip was chipped off.  It was a user but it's only the blade that took abuse.

Not too shabby for a 16 year old multi-tool.

Too bad I don't care for BO finishes.
