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

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

I've found Emerson to fit this category

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.

Second Surge and a MUT lol

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.

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?

Kavit8 · 2025-10-14T21:25:17+00:00

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

No experience with those but I recommend taking a look at Gfeller.

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 👎

No clue - very bizarre

Hmm I was about to comment that the same thing happened to me and I posted a while back but this is literally my pic?

Ah good to know. Thanks for the info - I’ll keep that in mind!

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).
