Spur of the Moment MP600 Challenge
on: November 29, 2023, 01:15:47 AM
One more day of the Spirit Challenge and here I go!  Actually, I've been itching to try EDCing my MP 600 since I got it, and I have a month before the OHT Farewell Challenge so here goes starting 12/1/23. :ahhh

   I didn't see anything about an organized challenge?  So, you just decided to challenge yourself and put the MP600 on your belt?  Bravo!  Are you going to do an update and post pictures and stuff?  Sounds like fun.  Best wishes.  G

Yessir, I had my son's MP600 out and thought I'd put mine to the test!

If my research is correct, a small band of only 9 glorious MT warriors have completed the MP Challenge - myself included  :salute: - and you will be the first person complete the Challenge in 6 years.

 :woohoo:

Reminds me of The Great MP600 Burial Project of 2014-15 some 9 years ago:

 :cheers: Powernoodle!  I thought it had been awhile, but I didn't know that it had been that long ago with so few participants  :o

If I hadn't just set up for a Sak-A-Like, I'd be down. I'll be cheering from the sidelines though.

I completed my MP challenge in 2017.  It doesn't seem that long ago.  I also carried it for a month in the Daredevil challenge because we were challenged to carry something we didn't like.  I like the MP well enough but I never carry because it always bothered me that it poked holes in my pockets with that needle nose plier sticking out the end of it, so it had to be carried on my belt which I have always hated. Anyone you ask would have to admit it is the best multitool for fidget factor with the flickey pliers though.  Not promising to join you Barry, but I'll certainly be watching.

Thanks Alan!  It's definitely a fun fidget tool.   I'm in the OHT Challenge in January so it will be interesting to compare the two.

Yes. A comparison after a month of use of each one would be great. :hatsoff:

Barry, I just got my 1st Gerber today, but it is this one.  The MP600 is in route.  Could I use this one until my MP600 arrives?

Edit: Or maybe add on the days at the end once the MP600 arrives.

Double Edit.  Looks like it is expected tomorrow!  One can hope!

Lisa, that Multiplier of yours has me looking now too  :rofl:   That's in incredible condition and the box looks brand new 😍.  Long ago, I used to sell Gerber Gear in the days of the Mark I and II, and the first Multipliers.  Those were the equivalent of the Spyderco's and the Benchmade in those days.  If only I had a time machine  :rofl:

Barry,

I have an MP600 coming from Amazon, but it will probably get here on the 3rd.

Can I start on the 3rd and do 30 days?

Thank you FB! :cheers:
