Dunc gets more Leathermans
on: January 09, 2009, 08:14:51 PM
Well I got a Blast the other day in a trade with Dave and now I've got a PST and two , yes two Sideclips from a trade with cgjones  :D

The PST doesn't have any date stamps and the Sideclips are dated  ( remember each handle is made up of two parts so each sideclip has four dates on it ) 0498 and 0398 and the other is 0997 0198 1297 1097 so I guess they are early ones . I'm so pleased with them . Until recently I never considered a Sidclip but they are a cracking multitool .

Nice.

That's a later version of the PST.  Earlier versions (like my original PST) had a slightly different and less robust phillips driver.

I love the side clip. Very basic and very functional. I wish the drivers locked but I understand the value of simplicity also. I may need to look into getting one again. :multi:

Nice! :tu: Maybe I'll get a sideclip someday, as I think they were a great tool. It's another one on the "why-the-heck-did-you-retire-it!" list.. For now I just have to live with my kick...

Love the sideclip. It is my Sunday go to meeting with the one layer SAK alox. I love the bantam and the Sideclip as a combo carry.

Stupid question perhaps but why are the Sideclip legs made in two parts?  :think:

Thanks for the pretty pics Dunc  :tu:  I like the look of the Sideclip. 

Actually I like the look of a lot of things but I'll be good and have a play with everyone's tools at the meet before I start getting rash with the cash :)

I'm not taking any more mod orders at present, sorry.

Maybe because of the thicker steel in the handle? Thicker is good, because the handle doesn't dig into your palms when squeezing the pliers shut like on a PST. However maybe the thicker steel was difficult for Leatherman's stamping dies to form into a full channel shape, so they made it in two halves.

Just a guess... :-\
In order to be certain of having the right tool for every job.........one must first acquire a lot of tools
