All:

I apologize if this has been posted before, or is common knowledge.
But I just got this forward and thought I'd pass it along. I'm sure
someone will actually try this and let us know if it really works as
advertised.

C.H.U.D.S. Don't need no stinken can opener.

'Splain your acronym, please, Tom.

And I have a P-51 on my keychain, JIC. I like it better than the tiny
P-38 they used in WWII, y'know, for my large and manly hands.


Thats standard equpment for any survivalist, plus a couple in the
glove box, one in the wallet, one sewed to the inside of ones belt etc
etc


I see dozens of P-38s to every P-51. If you're weakened, the larger
tool will be that much easier to use to restore your strength by
opening that can of wholesome sustenance. burp


Indeed. And its simply easier for the old farts like me to use.


Sharpen the corner into a screw driver shape..it will get some screws
tight/loose. Sharpen the other corner into a blade..it will skin a
rabbit. Messy...but it works

Also micro multitools that hang nicely on ones keychain

My poor legs are already abused from the crap I carry in my pockets.
No more tools, please!


? What..you carry Stuff in your pockets? Whatever for?? Other than
your wallet and a couple pocket knives and maybe a lighter..everything
else should go in pouches. It simply looks like an extra cell phone
case if done right.


I carry the Leatherman Micra and have standardized on them on all the
keychains here on the homestead. They simply work Good. Even the
tweezers.

I keep my (almost unused) Leatherman in the BOB nowadays. But the tool
I just replaced (wore out my last one after only 30+ years) is a pair
of 6" needle nosed ViseGrips. I have one pair in the truck and one in
my BOB, and I don't think I've ever owned a more versatile tool. Also
in my BOB is a Coleman micro, but I doubt I could rely on it as much.


Anything with a Coleman lable on it...with the possible exception of
lanterns....is suspect...very suspect.
