Does nobody else have, or use, a Wingman  :dunno:

Today the Royal "we" (Mrs Surge) took delivery of some smoked Salmon, hot & cold varieties*

It will join us briefly** in Italy over the Easter weekend (you can't get any decent stuff there  :ahhh)

* I only like the "hot smoke"

** They like it awl and it won't get out of the kitchen to the table  ::)

Mrs Surge and I have been away for Easter visiting the in-laws in, you guessed it, Italy  :whistle:

Upon our return the Wingman helped open a replacement washing machine door handle (for fitting over the next few days  ::))
I just live life on the ragged edge  :viking:  :facepalm:

So, having been on the SwissTool challenge for the past month I have put the Wingman to use today.

Nothing too challenging; it was used to help remove the SwissTool from my Tac' vest and replace it with my usual Surge (the fasteners are designed not to come apart easily, to stop the equipment being pulled off by a suspect etc.)

I could, of course, have used either of the other MTs but, where's the fun in that  :dunno: :rofl:

Hello & I promise it is legally still Wednesday here where I sit in California!  :)

I find this interesting, maybe others here know about this Wingman variation? I've got an older Wingman with a different style than any other I've seen. It is undated but says "Wingman TM" instead of "Wingman (R)" It is the lower model in these photos. The upper Wingman is dated 0321.

The first notable difference is: the faceplate or whatever its called that has the name on it is shaped differently, more smoothly curved and exposing more of the blade. Then on the back, you can see there's a bit of ornamentation not present on newer models. Finally, the fixed plier side is finished in a way I haven't seen on a Leatherman, very smooth with the circle barely showing.

I like the look of this one better than the usual Wingman. Anyone seen this model before?

(All the other tools in this unusual Wingman are the same as usual, as far as I've noticed.)

Nice catch on the differences  :tu:

The older one should have a datecode as well but may be in a little different spot than the newer one :think:

I really haven't checked for dates on Wingmans much but if I think. I will look at one of mine this evening and see if I can find a datecode :salute: :cheers:
