New to the forum, not to tools

Hi,

My name is Jim, from Seattle (yes, it's a dump these days). I've been using multi-tools since 2006. I've moved on recently from Leatherman to SAK's and the Swisstool Spirit. By trade I've worked as a mechanic (dealer and fleet), a deep-sea diver and now (for the last 15 years) a combination of pool and spa maintenance with facilities maintenance. I've had loads of Leatherman tools that probably encompass most of their line from 2006 to the present.

Anyway, nice to be here and I'll have to dig around a bit. I'm off to post a Leatherman up for sale. Thanks all!
