Tell Us Your Tale

OK, you voyeur, you. Enough of reading other people's stories. It's time you told your own tale of gripping heroism or even just neat DIY'ism. We know there's a Shakespeare in you somewhere. Don't make us use the Steens to find it.

none other

so being the owner of many multi tools (2 gerbers and two SOG powerlocks) I carried my gerber with me everywhere until I bought a Leatherman skeletool. I work at a summer camp and being around kids for 3 months I can't exactly pull out my Cold Steel Big folding knives and I couldn't find my gerber FLIK anywhere so i drove up to the local walmart (45 min away) just to try and find a repolacement tool and there sat the skeletool. (my gerber was in the engine bay of the jeep the entire time.)

Another example is that i work on cars as a side job and the skeletool was nice and all but it just wasn't getting the job done so the other day while i was under the hood of my truck my best friend pulls up and says he's got a suprise for me and pulls a leatherman surge out of his truck and hands it to me and says that I can have it because he never uses it and isn't much of a multi tool person and I would take better care of it. So covered in engine oil and transmition fulid i gave him the biggest bear hug ever. the surge hasn't left my side sense.
