help me spend my hard earned...
on: June 27, 2011, 10:58:46 PM
Evening all

I'm living in the UK and currently own a Cybertool 34 and to be honest its been the best tool I've owned.

Its fixed everything from cars, furniture to dishwashers and TVs aswell as pc's, servers and laptops.

Bought a Leatherman PS4 6 months ago and I'm disappointed.  Apart from the pliers the Cybertool is better at everything else. I've decided to get a Swisstool Spirit. Then a Surefire LED Defender and a Spyderco Terzuola.

Thanks

Robert

We are VERY good at helping people spend their $  :D :D , too good I think   :ahhh :ahhh :ahhh :ahhh :ahhh :ahhh :D :D :D.

Which Spirit do you think you will get  :think: :think: , I love my x with it having the proper conventional main blade , I was not keen on the Spirit's butter knife blade (some do like it ).

Thanks for the warm welcome all  :waving:

I was thinking about the Spirit with the butter knife and getting a Spyderco (UKPK or Terzuola) to compliment the multitool.

Looks like we've already helped you spend some hard earned money on a Surefire Robert, so what's next? :pok: :pok: :D
In order to be certain of having the right tool for every job.........one must first acquire a lot of tools

Just had a yearly bonus so bought Spirit, Vic Classic, Surefire E2D and a little Streamlight Nano. 

Just need a good knife, I think I've mentioned about getting a Spyderco Terzuola.

Not long ago bought a Opinel No. 8 but its illegal as an EDC knife in the UK.

If you're not looking at spending big money, the Byrd Wings Slipit is a very good buy. Took me a little getting used to, but now gets way more pocket time than my Spyderco UKPK. If you want to go more traditional, there's always the Sheffield made slippies. A little more of a lottery, but you can get some real belters if you can find somewhere to try before you buy
