So... what's next?

I just realized that aside from a Buck 360 I'm waiting on, I don't have anything on order. What tool should I pick up next? I'm thinking about a LM Core, but I've also been thinking I should pick up a SOG. I have no idea which one though.

What's your next tool going to be?

My next one will be the Leatherman Charge AL. I don't have a Leatherman and thought I should get one sometime soon.

The tools that I want to get next are the LM Charge AL and the SwissTool Spirit S. Of course there are about 10 other tools that I want after that and 10 other SAKs after that.

I was thinking of getting a Gerber Diesel or perhaps the freehand. I like the outboard opening tools of the freehand. Has anybody had the opportunity to try any of the victorinox tools. How are they?

I have a SOG and I believe that it is one of the finest tools available today. The leatherman wave that my wife got me for Christmas is a fine tool as well. I already have a gerber multiplier and it is on duty 24-7 in my car.

Go for a SOG Powerlock...I think my search for the perfect multi is over now that I carry one, although I'm waiting for some serious discounts so I can try a Wave and Swisstool (the two main contenders as far as I can tell).

Today alone I repaired a tape measure, pulled box staples, gave myself a haircut, and opened a beer with the Powerlock. The weight is good also...not so light you might lose it and not know, but not heavy enough to be a problem.

I decided to deal with my issues and ordered one of those Tiger Stripe SOG's. It was only a matter of time I suppose. I held out for a good week or so.

You have to give us tons of pics when you get that one J-Sews.

A week? Wow, that's a really long time

Now you need a Tiger Stripe Knife, and that Surefire Defender flashlight... then you'll be so "tactical" it'll be scary

I am thinking I will have to break down an get the Core soon. Other than that, I dunno- I am kind of direction-less at the moment. One o fthose Paladin tools would be nice though...

Package arrived last week with a mint still in box PST

then this morning postie delivered a used but v.good Bucklite 355

Next one will have to be a Sideclip, although I may have to wait a couple of weeks before I go for it.
Two multitools in less than 2 weeks takes a bit of justifying to non believers. (wife etc..)

Stay Safe

After looking around I think I will order the swisstool spirit.

J-SEWS, are you talking about the SOG trident folder? I have one of those. It is really light and has a great blade shape. Assissted opening is a plus too. The groove in the handle doesent actually work wonders though. I prefer the Sog shroud cutter on the multitool.
