First time using the 58mm combo tool as a cap lifter. Not ideal but worked fine enough.

There’s not too many tasks that can’t be tackled with the combo of MC and Harvester  :tu:




Really can’t see any other knife bumping the MC from its perch of best back up knife for me. Simply because it’s the one that I’m always wanting to reach for and feel weird when I don’t have on me.  :ahhh

Received an Alox Minichamp as a late Christmas gift. Now the proud owner of 2 MC models. Never before noticed the Vic shield position between the cellidor and alox. I suppose that’s for the Midnite MC light button. Keyring position and tool layout is the same.

I have three at the moment, a normal one for quite some time, a Midnight model, and one in black alox that is wearing out from being on the key ring.
I use it quite a bit as a secondary or when I want to go really light or carry another multitool
It is a classic of the brand

Happy I’ve got a couple minichamps now. Always helpful with the kids toys.

My new Alox MiniChamp has been on duty the last few days, and has already seen much use: fixing the zip on Mrs. M's handbag, battery-replacement in a remote control and the step daughter's toys, nails cut and filed, stray fringes cut from edge of throw rug, the list goes on! It's coupled with my personalised (Father's Day gift from last year) Hiker today, as we're off out, and the saw might just prove handy.

I was section hiking the Appalachian Trail years ago with my oldest.  I carried only a Mini champ, which performed stellar service until.....we needed to cut fire wood.  Luckily, Noah's Hiker saved the day!

Don’t have a Minichamp (need to fix that)

I do have a custom Alox that has most of the tools of the MC. Have to say the thing that is most endearing about it is when I don’t have another MT on me for some reason the MC is always there on my keychain and can do almost everything needed on the daily.

Here is a picture because we all know it ain’t worthwhile without one. I use the clip as a keychain dangler in my pocket.

Why you most certainly do.   But in the meantime what tools are on your mod?

Never did clean her after the Nailclip took over the keychain show recently.

Here is a picture with all her tools deployed. Knife, Scissors, Wharnie Knife, flathead and mini Phillips/bottle opener and of course the nail file/cleaner.

Very close.  It seems HarleyXJGuy has replaced the cut and pick tool with a fingernail file.

My most used SAK. I never thought I would used more than the bigger ones, like the Explorer that I used to carry back then.
