If J-Sews was here I am sure he would know (as well as a few others that may not be checking this thread ;) ) but as for me I am not very MT savvy with many other brands :oops: :ahhh :ahhh :ahhh :D

After nearly 10 years, and 30k posts?  :pok: I'm pretty certain you'll know at least two of these tools  ;)

I reckon there's members out there who know the answers, but just don't want to ask the next questions  :P

I suppose they could always nominate someone else to ask a question?  We aren't that strict on the rules.

It's Monday. More pics.  :salute:

That first pic made me think of those odd french MTs with non-folding slip-joint pliers,  and when I looked further into it I think it might be a Wichard or Au Sabot X2 MT  ???  ( and if anyone has either one they might be interested in selling or trading for, please contact me)

Roll on tomorrow when we get some more clues    :D

I guess I'd better ask a question then (and keeping with the precedent of a non-common brand, this'n is not made by LM, Gerber, Kershaw, Bear, Al Mar Buck, Schrade, Kutmaster, Vic or Wenger, nor is it a cheap knock-off of another brand).  I also like the concept of starting with a sparse clue, then adding more clues if no-one guesses it.  So here goes:

Clue 1:  Flattish rectangular form.

Clue 2:  No pliers or file.

What say you ?
