Greetings from the Show Me State
on: March 04, 2025, 12:52:34 AM
Hello everyone!

My multi tool history goes back to the early 2000's. I asked for a Leatherman for Christmas one year and received a BuckTool.  ???
Fast forward to today, and I have a fair collection of multi tools (mostly Leatherman) and knives (mostly Spyderco) and other cool gadgets.
Unfortunately, nobody I know appreciates them like I do.  I've been lurking here for years, I guess it is time to join the conversation. I intend to learn a lot and contribute a little.

Now, time to figure out how to post pictures...

Posting photos isn't too hard.  A little tricky the first time or two.  Make sure the file size isn't too big.  Welcome to the hive.  Best wishes.  Gary (IMR)

I lot of people don't know much about multitools until they come here- there just isn't a lot of info about them at large, which is the main reason we started this site! 

Stick around for a little bit and you will be a pro in no time!  There is absolutely no site on the internet that has more information about histories, variants, timelines, use cases, warranty info, or whatever else you may want to know than this one.

I look forward to hearing your thoughts!
