I tried a para2 for a couple of days and found the ergonomics horrible
That knife gets such great reviews that I am thinking of trying it again

Really? After carrying my ZT the spydie feels like poetry! I do feel like's it's a great mix of features....

The 0301 is mind and the 0350 is my wife's. I'm loving this beefy thing and Em loves her's too.

I was pretty rough with my favorite EDC folder a month or so ago and finally sent it back to Leatherman for repairs. A week later and I have brand new Skeletool CX.

I broke the pliers while twisting in a way you shouldn't twist a pair of pliers this small and one of the sides snapped. I figured they would just replace the pliers part. Instead, they gave me a new version. It may be hard to tell, but there is a 1.5mm increase in thickness on this one. I guess mine wasn't the first to be sent back for repairs and they are trying to fix the issue.

I honestly didn't think it was an issue since I was being extremely abusive to it when it snapped. Either way, I got my favorite folder back and it is ready to open more beers for me.

I have a Leathernman Charge TTi in my pack. It is too big in my opinion for EDC, but it is a great tool.

I love my charge TTi. I have my Southard in my right pocket, and my charge clipped in my left.

I don't leave the house without a Leatherman multitool. It's often not on my person, but close by..they have paid for themselves many times over.

Leatherman has a great warranty. I love my Supertool 200 great size for me. The 300 is a little big and I don't think the build quality is quite there. Glad the shop is right down the street from me <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Anyone have a spyderco zulu? They functional? I have a nice discount with sierra trading post and am tempted. Always thought they looked great, but I'm not a fan of liner locks, I wonder how user friendly it is and all I've been doing lately is catching and releasing knives! Any thought on this spydie please?

OMG THE O777 ARE ON THEIR WAY!
some dealers have got them in already. I suspect they might be a bit too expensive a folder for some, $480map $600retail.
I have pre-orders at two different places. Hoping at least one of them can get me my fix.
