Hi from UK South East
on: May 20, 2013, 06:12:58 PM
Hi,

Have been lurking and sucking up all your knowledge a little while so I thought I should out myself and join up.

Have been through all the usual phases, knives, bushcraft, gadgets, boys toys etc and as far as MT's go I own nothing special but seem to have accumulated half a dozen SAKs and MT's.  In my old age I seem to enjoy just sitting and fiddling with them while watching TV and therein lies the fascination with MT's I suppose, with a folder I can just open and close and open and close, while getting worrying looks from the missus.  But with a MT I can open, and open, and open, and close, and connect, and close and open etc without being thought of as tooooo strange.

So Hi,

Dave
