The LM you sold that you miss the most...
on: August 17, 2013, 03:55:35 PM
For me, it would be my Charge ALX that I sold a couple years ago.  I was very fond of that tool and cannot remember what prompted me to sell it.  It was darn near the perfect MT IMO and I think of it often.  There are others I've sold, but that is the one I miss the most.

Let's hear your stories...   :pok:

A red Squirt P4. They proved to be really hard to find later, while I thought I'd be able to find another one whenever I wanted.

  I don't think I have ever sold anything I have missed (so far), but I did accidentally give my Vic Climber to a friend. :-[  At the time I had a couple of extra Climbers and decided that my mate needed one as he was going to work in Europe, no problem so far. 
 
  Where it went a little wrong was when I picked up the Climber that was the second ever SAK I bought myself, rather than one of the other ones I had picked up from ebay.  By the time I realised my mistake the Climber, and my friend, were living in Germany.  It's too late to ask him to swap now, he's got his own good memories and stories attached to that SAK so I'd feel like a heel asking for it back.  Ah well, at least I know it's been well used and that he really loves it.

The only Leatherman I've sold is my Wingman and I miss it even though I have better tools.

I never sold a Leatherman. The seperation anxiety would be debilitating. There is one item not multi tool related I miss. I sold a Fender Bronco amp 9 years ago I regretted ever since. Many, many late nights plugged into that little box.  :cry:

Sold.....it was probably my original Skeletool CX with the CE blade. I have since bought a newer CX, not sure if I miss the CE blade yet or not.

Lost....Supertool 200. I know where it is, but cannot get to it :/

I sold my first Surge, missed it and bought another one. Then I remembered why I sold it and sold it again. :doh: I do miss having a Wave though. I'll buy one eventually, though the next one will probably be BO.

Well I have occasionally thought about replacing one or two Leatherman tools I have sold/traded, but once I started looking at them again online I remembered why I got rid of them. These include Pulse, Sideclip, Rebar, Skeletool, 3 juices, Blast (maybe more). None of them worked well for me.

The Pulse didn't stop with me long and the experience saved me money by instantly killing any interest in the Supertool 200, The Sideclip and Skeletool were the start of a journey that led to my Gerber Octane that I'm much happier with. The Rebar was an OK tool, but had far too many compromises for my liking and was a damp squib alongside the Vic Spirit. The Blast is actually a good tool, but I just prefer outboard tools

The only time I replaced something I had gotten rid of was a Juice CS4 and regretted it as soon as I opened it. Everything I had hated about the original Juice was still there, although in fairness the scissors were very slightly less abysmal on the new one

In short I have gotten rid of more tools by Leatherman than any other manufacturer ... and have no regrets on the ones I let go. There are some I am very happy with, but I've not been daft enough to part with them  :P

I wouldn't sell any of my Leathermans. I've given my kids and there friends Leathermans but it was because of surplus or planned gifts. I did give my son an original Super Tool that I kind of miss and I doubt he still has.

Well seeing as I just sold a few Leathermans like a week ago, I can't say I really miss any of them.  However, I will say if I do end up missing one, it will be either the Blast or Charge AL.  The Blast was my very first multitool, but I know it's loved in its new home ;)  The Charge AL was a toss up choice to sell with the Charge TTi.  It was very close, but one factor was that I had modded the flathead on the TTi to be more of an awl ("awl"beit not a great one ::)), so I figured I better keep it.  The AL is very smooth in opening/closing, and I like how it felt in that respect.  But overall, I don't think I will miss any of them in any heartbreaking way that will cause me to want to get them again.

Oh of course.  :tu:

Honestly it will probably not get used anytime soon as i'm using my Rebar for all my multitool needs. If I got a NIB Blast I would probably use the one you sold me.

Can't blame you there, I love my Rebar, and it's one of the reasons I didn't really need to keep the Blast.  Oh you should get a NIB Blast while you can because they're already "vintage" ya know ;)

A red Squirt P4. They proved to be really hard to find later, while I thought I'd be able to find another one whenever I wanted.

Red Squirt P4, huh? PM me.

As for me, I miss the two Pulses that I traded away. I had a KF4 in grey, and traded it. I had two NIB KF4s in yellow, and traded them. I'm down to my last yellow KF4 now, and I'm debating trading it.
This is gonna hurt...
