Leatherman PST wanted
on: May 04, 2019, 04:02:59 PM
Hi all! I think I’d like to get a PST. Not really sure how much they go for, so it will probably depend on price.

Preferences for decent condition, doesn’t have to be new and the leather sheath.

Let me know!
If the trees blew down the wind and no one was around, would the alphabet song really go backwards?

MTSmith was selling one not so long ago, last I heard it hadn't sold?

https://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,80769.msg1884261.html#msg1884261

I'd say $25 - $40 depending on condition would be reasonable I think.  :think:

Also... part of the fun of PSTs is doing them up - why not get an old battered one and repair it? It's immensely good fun and gives one a great sense of ownership.  :2tu:

By the way, an old PSTs is probably the most lovely multitool you can get* - try and get a mid 90s one, you will not be disappointed.


*In my humble opinion.

Thanks for your help guys. After thinking about it more (should’ve done that before I posted), I don’t think I really need a PST right now.

I’ve got 3 Vic spirits, and really shouldn’t spend money on another multi that likely won’t see much use.

Interesting - what makes it so lovely Fuzzy? I've always thought the handles would be uncomfy to use without chainmail gloves and mittens. Never handled one though so this is pure circumspect.

Adding on to mag's questions, what makes the mid 90's ones the ones to get?

Adding on to Gus's question, why batter a perfectly good multitool? Wouldn't it still be hard on the teeth, even with a crispy coating of batter?

Maybe it’s like when you have to wrap your dog’s meds in cheese to get them to take it?

Or maybe getting it battered up makes it slide effortlessly out of your hands before you can put too much pressure on those razor blades...er, I mean handles

You just never know with Fuzzy. I wouldn't be at all surprised if he was on dog medication.

You could be on to something there Gus. Also the Scotch will batter anything and everything

One nice thing about the 90's make of PST to me is the design of the Phillips driver. I have owned the latter as well and it's just a preference. Either way, a PST I OR II is one or the finest multitools made past or present. I like the suggestion to restore one if possible because then it inherits the fit finish and character you desire.
