On a Whim
OK, I've got a few multi-tools laying about. I've got a Juice Xe6 that I often carry as an EDC. I've got a Wave I keep in the car. And I've got a Charge ALX...
The Charge kind of stands out. I bought it entirely on a whim. I already had a Wave, so why did I need it? I thought I'd wasted my money. When I got it, I grudgingly decided I might as well start carrying it.
I recently inherited my Dad's old home place & farm, and it needs LOTS of work. The first day, I had the Charge there with me; I think it paid for itself. From helping me break up old wire-bound crates, to sawing down limbs, to cutting up old boxes, to repairing fencing, to just tightening up screws in doorframes... I suddenly realized I might have made the right decision after all.
I think I'm sold. The Charge is a winner!

OK, you voyeur, you. Enough of reading other people's stories. It's time you told your own tale of gripping heroism or even just neat DIY'ism. We know there's a Shakespeare in you somewhere. Don't make us use the Steens to find it.
