Great Tool!

I've literally had this multi-tool on my hip everyday (except for flights(TSA)) since I bought it off SAC about six months ago. I had never heard of the brand before, but the product looked intriguing. I figured I'd wear it around for a bit and only use it when I was fixing things or in the outdoors. I wasn't sure I could play the role of "that guy" who wears crap on his belt. Little did I know I didn't have a choice because I'd become attached to it.... It's like a third hand now and it's amazing how easy it can make your life to have a multi-tool... specifically this multi-tool with you everyday. I've had a Leatherman and a Gerber in the past but for some reason they never stuck. I don't think I've had a day pass without using it for some random task. After six months it shows very little signs of wear and it's mechanical operation is very smooth. It's one hand operation is pretty awesome and it's tough as hell. I've cut silverware, pennies and barbed wire in half with it and I can still cut through very fine wire with no problems. The power-assisted blades still work great and are very useful. It's also very fun to play with when your bored... even after all this time. If I lose my SOG or somehow break it trying to cut a chair in half or something... I'm definitely going to buy a new one ASAP.
