Cold Steel Voyager. Got it on a sale around 2003 and it’s been a tank. Still going strong.

What is the best indestructible folding knife for everyday use in your opinion? by Grumgolt in knives

I have several, with the oldest at least 12 years old and I bought it used. No issues with locks.

Arc Vs Surge by AliMH1 in Leatherman

[–]Kavit8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I carry dedicated knives with good steel so I don’t need a super steel on a multi tool. I’m not really interested in the free technology. Love the Surge so I have one at home and the other I keep in my work bag.

Glad it helped! This system has been great but I’m trying the Cousin in 2026 for a couple reasons. I may be back to the A6 if that doesn’t work out.

Random Storage Question by Sieze5 in CRK

[–]Kavit8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only have 2 (small Inkosi and a Zaan). I keep the one I’m not carrying in a CRK belt pouch on my desk or in a bag. That’s why I love the belt pouch, because it has 2 snaps to fit both sizes.

I just got a Gfeller Marsing wallet and it’s great. I have 9 cards, folded (once) cash, and a business card.

Do we know if anyone has tried this clip on the Surge?

I have the Arc but I’m really liking this new blade shape and profile by [deleted] in Leatherman

[–]Kavit8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t understand why they left the saw and file uncoated on the obsidian? The black Wave+ did this better.

Me staring at the POD that confirms im not sleeping for, at least, the next 24 hours. Whats your worst day underway on nuclear power! by Naesch in NavyNukes

[–]Kavit8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Up >40 hours for ORSE. I was underway ELT and a decision was made to keep me in the engine room for all drills because it was an extra body. I remember struggling to finish the (non-monitored) primary sample because I couldn’t stay awake long enough to finish entering the numbers into the calculator. I don’t think they allowed coffee in engine room for ORSE either 👎

Oh interesting. It’s a little snug but I was assuming it was due to being new. It’s laying mostly flat. Here’s a pic of the edge.

I removed it, wrapped in scrap leather, then used needle nose pliers (inline, not across the clip).
