If you averted your eyes at the appropriate time, you’re OK.

I bought a Gerber multi-tool 10 years ago, the kind worn on my belt. This is without a doubt the tool most useful under everyday conditions. I have used it 100X more than any other tool in my fairly extensive set.

Every Gerber Multitool I’ve had broke on me.

Had mine for 10 years, but I am open to better options and other ideas.

That’s the compact model, correct?

Bridgeport mill and a Leblond engine lathe. With them you can build all other tools.

I want to change my first response. I will take an M-4, 1,000 rounds, an auto handgun with 500 rounds. I can get anything I want or need with those. Maybe a canteen of water while I wait for the person lugging all this c$ap to come along so I can help myself to their stuff.

Well of course I averted my eyes!

I just never had to ask my grandmother for a personal item before.

The look on her face was priceless tho :)

Looks like I should have added a smiley face to that post.

I was teasing.
