I have a number of extra parts that I am always willing to offer to Multitool.org members, so there's part of your question answered!

I really like the Pocket Power Plier- I have to say I think it was one of SOG's finest designs, which is high praise indeed!

By the way, the best thing I found for changing the tools is the little ratchet that Victorinox offers with the SwissTools and Spirits.  The heads of the SOG pins are 1/4" and so fit perfectly into the ratchet head.  Use a Crunch or other locking pliers on the other side and you can use the ratchet to tighten the pin as much as you like, quickly and easily.

I love the Pocket Plier. To me it is a refined original PST. Small, light and useful.  Another SOG I like to that has become my main EDC is the Paratool.

I like the shape of the PPP jaws better than nearly any other multitool. Some might say they are a bit delicate, but that is perfect for the nature of most work I do.

In order to be certain of having the right tool for every job.........one must first acquire a lot of tools
