New User from California

Hi! Thank you for having me! I'm Frost from California. Not a collector by any means but a tool user and sometimes designer/modifier. I am currently an Aerospace Engineer working in defense and military aviation; formerly in WRC Rally and UCI World Tour cycling. My first introduction to multitools was back in 2007 with a second hand Gerber MP600 (I believe) and used it for a few years until I was introduced to the Victorinox Spirit X and have been a big fan of the Swisstools ever since besides the SAKs. Occasionally I modify Knipex plier wrenches for maintenance on "Fat Amy"s. Thanks again!

-Frost  :tu:


Current MTs/Knives:

Victorinox Spirit X (2008)
Victorinox Spirit MX Clip
Victorinox Swisstool X
Leatherman Arc (KVP mods)
Nextool Mini Flagship
Victorinox Explorer Plus
Victorinox Pioneer Alox
Victorinox Pioneer X Alox
Victorinox Spartan (1992)
Victorinox Soldier (1993 unused)
Spyderco PM2 S110v
Kershaw Flaxion
CJRB Mini Pyrite Ultem

Welcome aboard! What part of California? I was born in the East Bay, was stationed in San Diego, and spent most of my life in and around Fresno.

Welcome to the forum from the opposite corner of North America!

I was just in San Francisco, Yosemite and Sonoma last month and had a great time!
