Excuse me?
Leatherman tools rule.
Isn't that a glorified Swiss Army knife?
Never met a multi-tool I liked except for a claw hammer.
A decent tool box doesn't take up much space.
If you're convinced send me that Leatherman and I'll take a look at it
before I get rid of it.
Already posted my address.

The guy I posted for will be using it to carry on a dirtbike.. no room
for a toolbox, even a small one...

That's the one I have...but I understand Leatherman "retired" that
model. It's a great little pocket tool. I even pack it in my checked-in
luggage when I fly somewhere. Used to be able to keep it in my
pocket...- Hide quoted text -

You're not allowed to have them on a commercial flight because it has
a knife, liar.

He is a liar, but not necessarily in this case. You need to apologize to
harold.

In the 80's I had a briefcase that I used for about 10 yrs, and had used
on over 1000 flights. This was when they were having problems with all
of the hijacked flights. When I purchased a new briefcase, and took
everything out, I found a pocketknife with a 3" blade in one of the side
compartments. I was surprised that it was never seen by the Xray
machines. My guess is they would find it today. Or maybe I am hoping
they would find it today.

An even better question is.Could you hijack a plane with it?" We know you
couldn't, which means about most of the security folks in the airports
could go home.

What a colossal waste of money.
