Tool Tales

July 2009

Eager to Compare

I'm a service manager in a large marina and have worn my XTi Titanium 6 days a week for 3-1/2 years. About 5 months ago I was trying to cut a piece of hardened wire and destroyed the wire cutter on the piece. I filed it down with my Spyderco sharpener stones (I use them to keep a razor edge on the stainless blade, just in case I go in the water with a line attached to me) and continued to use the tool. I decided to treat myself to a new piece and found that the TTi has replaced it. I ordered one and am eager to see how it compares to my previous two Leatherman. Thanks for a great tool!

The second Charge in the original series was just as high-end as the first. With a cutting hook instead of scissors, it was hard to choose between the two.

Tell Us Your Tale

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.
