I have a Gerber Steady on the way. It’s brand new in the packaging, and it’s going to live in my lightweight travel camera kit. It’ll be used with my Pentax Q7.

For those unfamiliar, this awesome thing is the gerber steady:

Looks good! And unlike our Craftsman, no stupid plastic donkey cart wheels that break if you look at them funny. And those wheels are very expensive to replace.

Those are all the Cobras I have at the moment, and they work very well. Much better than most full-size MTs. They don't have cutters, but I typically pair them with a pair of 180mm Knipex combination pliers for that.

I'm wondering what exactly is the "Self Locking" on the larger ones. The 6" (next pair I am getting; as they will fit in the compact tool kit I have) and larger have it written on the handle.

Just ordered a slip pouch for my PX from Etsy (it's the one on the left that looks black but is, apparently, Choc' Brown  :think: )

It was about 21 GBP with delivery from Belgium so not a bad deal and the quality looks good (the reviews were good as well)

Here's the link if anyone is interested  :dunno: (Mods please remove if not allowed  :whistle: )

https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/511719979/slip-sheath-for-victorinox-alox-series?ref=shop_home_active_1&crt=1

I'll let you all know when it arrives and if it's as good as it looks  :salute:
They don't like it up 'em!

I have a rare Camillus #10 Barlow on the way. I wasn't going to buy anything for a while but I couldn't let this one get away as I've been looking for one for years. Got it for a great price as well  :tu:

Just had to order these three picks as I needed
some really thin ones for this lock I am trying to
pick and my regular picks are a bit too thick for it

I've been picking locks for over 20 years now, although expensive (relatively), you can't beat Southord picks.
