Hello from Minnesota
on: April 29, 2012, 04:39:37 AM
Hello M.T.O

I'm a long time lurker of this great forum and I had to join today.

I'm hoping to keep learning about the tools I use and give a little knowledge of my own.

I love my saks, multitools , lights, knives and pocket tools.

I'm going to have fun here too.

I'm happy to be a member :)

I got friends that are already members here and I'm looking forward to Making more.

Joel :)

Hi Joel
 Glad to see you made it in. You'll learn loads here from all the great members. Just guard your wallet, these guys/gals have a way of making you buy tools you don't need but are :drool: worthy. Lol
If I remember correctly, wait, what was I saying?

Thank You too Multimatt

I got a Victorinox Spirit, Swisschamp and Farmer. Wenger Evo 18 Travler-with backpacker blade etch_, backpacker, soldier and a one layer I can't remember the name.

For multitools I own a leatherman Skeletool, style cs,Wave,Blast,Juice xe6 + cs2 Victorinox Spirit and a gerber 600.

I've had many more sak's and tools over the years.

Thanks Multimat

Im on a tight budget for now so I got to be very picky if I do buy a new tool.

I will have to do some trading if I want something new or different..

The good this is. I like to trade :multi:
