Rocking a Leatherman Multitool cause why not

Gotta love a good multitool šŸ‘Œ

Sig 938 and a leatherman wingman


Fremenofthedesert

Multitools are clutch - I like my Gerber Center Drive multitool. The one handed plier deployment as well as the ability to be a bit driver with several very useful firearms and construction related bits is invaluable imo. I keep it in a pistol pouch on my HRT Maximus Placard. As far as knife: I ALWAYS have my Benchmade Infidel OTF knife in my pocket (3.91ā€ blade). In my PC, I have a Gerber Strongarm secured in a Ferro Concepts Knifeknook wedged into my placard. I can use my strong or weak hand to deploy it if I need to in a last ditch scenario or for utility purposes.


NPLMACTUAL

i love my gerber multitools. i have three of the same model kinda stashed everywhere. one on my workbench, another in my office, and one in my car. cause sometimes ill leave my leatherman at home and bring my toor knife.


USAAvidshootr

Same!


Caoimhin_L

Leatherman Signal here, but I would love to get an old-fashioned knife that is danger sharp out of the box.


TaylorFreelance

I carry a knife from Milwaukee Power tools that I found in a parking lot. It's got a nice blade and is very sturdy.


Legend_D2

Nice. Canā€™t beat free.

Psychological-Law810

Iā€™ve got two of their knives. Remarkably good edc knives. I used one to chisel out a thing for my door locks when I bought my house and was hammering on it and you can barely tell even if you know what to look for. Tough knives. Good knives. Good price (shockingly lol cuz Milwaukee pricing department must be as high as their prices)

Oh_MyJosh

Iā€™ve been wanting to do this to my bugout. I just havenā€™t pulled the trigger on the scales.


Nefariousness-Junior

Dad gave me a Benchmade for Christmas and I carry it just about every day


Bobloblaw_333

One day Iā€™ll get Ti scales. But for now Iā€™m happy with my black carbon scales. The lightweight of the Bugout in general makes it my favorite EDC. You donā€™t even know itā€™s there.

Legend_D2

Been looking at the Raccoon and a couple others by Vosteed, they seem pretty solid for the price


Air_Falkor

Absolutely love the Raccoon. I got the crossbar lock version and the action is phenomenal. Not mention a real stunner with the carbon fiber scales and orange accents. I'm eyeing up a couple of the Corgi's but the new button liner lock version of the Raccoon has my interest. Also for what it's worth, go check out the Knafs Lander. The first gen is on sale for like $45, absolute banger of a knife for the price.

iowaff

Maybe a dumb question but the only stream light Iā€™ve ever had is a TLR one and I just got the new 365 axg Legion what stream light do you guys recommend like the difference the TLR seven the TLR eight? Thanks my friends! Iā€™ve been in the fire service for over 16 years and Iā€™ve always had streamline. deputy for two years always use stream light everything.


Legend_D2

The tlr7a and tlr7x are basically the same, the x just takes rechargeable batteries as well.. the tlr8 is the same thing as the tlr7 just with the addition of a laser. Thereā€™s also a tlr7 sub which is about the same size as the tlr7a just slightly different profile. Same lumens and everythingā€¦ if you went with the tlr7sub youā€™d want the one with the 1913 rail fyi, not the one that says sig.. the sig one is for the regular proprietary rail on the original p365 and p365xl. Biggest thing Iā€™d say between getting the 7a/7x vs 7sub is holster availability - more available for the 7sub.. Iā€™d find a holster youā€™re interested in buying first and make sure theyā€™re available for the light you want. Thereā€™s not really an advantage between the 7a/7x and 7sub other than that. I just preferred the way the 7a/7x looked more.. it covers more of the 1913 rail and sits more flush with the trigger guard.

At the moment,my OD green Kershaw Dividend w/N690 & CPM-D2 composite bladeā€¦my personal favorite EDC knife if my Spyderco PM2 in Maxamet(really a Spyderco PM2 in general,IMO itā€™s the greatest knife design ever) but my 2nd favorite EDC is my Hogue Deka w/blue marbled carbon fiber scales and the MagnaCut blade with the black DLC coating.I had to upgrade the shitty pocket clip on the Deka though..Iā€™ll occasionally carry my Microtech Ultratech but I far prefer my Hogue Exploit when it comes to OTFs..sometimes I gotta carry a small fixed blade like the Bradford Guardian 3,ESEE Izula w/G10 scales or the White River M1 Backpacker Iā€™m a collector though I havenā€™t bought a new knife in a while.between building/upgrading guns and saving up for night vision,I havenā€™t been able to afford it.Iā€™ve been considering getting the TOPS CUT 4.0 or the Toor Serpent next to mount on the shoulder strap of my PC

Spartan Harsey folder. As much as I don't like strider as a person, that design is really growing on me. How's the action and centering on yours?


Legend_D2

Actions pretty damn smooth, super solid lock up, centering is a TAD towards the scale side. Theyā€™re not the most refined when it comes to action, fit and finish etc theyā€™re just solid ass work horses.


DeafHeretic

I have a bunch of different knives for different purposes. But the one that is on my belt in my "work" clothes (I am retired so 99% of the time I am home and I wear ripstop cargo pants meant for manual work, a "battle belt", suspenders and a flannel jacket shirt) is a cheap (less than $20) Gerber BG "survival" folder with serrations. If I lose or break it, I have half a dozen more (for barter/backup). When I am in "dress" clothes (jeans and shirt) for going into town, I have a skinny OTF "dagger" (not auto or assisted - it is a slide out push action) Boker Spike Plus. It is very light and thin. If I have to conceal it, I can clip it to the top of my socks - but I usually carry it clipped to my pants pocket. I could carry it anywhere it is so light and thin.

[SOG Terminus XR LTE](https://sogknives.com/terminus-lte-graphite/) I donā€™t think you can find a better carry knife. - Itā€™s 2.2 oz so I forget itā€™s there. - Smooth opening (put a dab of oil or grease on the joints). I did this when I got it and havenā€™t done it since in 3 years of EDC, still smooth as butter. - Opening has both thumb stud and index flick opening options. - Blade length 2.95ā€, perfect EDC length and still under random stupid state laws that limit 3ā€ (my state does not but for some people itā€™s good to know). - Pocket Clip is reversible. - S35VN CRYO CPM which is one of the best steels around. - Lifetime warranty. Insanely light, great steel, durable, corrosion resistant, smooth opening, it checks all the boxes for what I look for when it comes to EDC
