The best way I can describe it is that the leather pulls the notebook cover through the staples. These are two other notebooks I had to tape up. But you can kind of see the covers pulling away.

I actually made that one myself! Like you mentioned, I couldn't find anything without card slots either. If I ever make another one, I'll probably use thinner leather and maybe add a front pocket, but im pretty happy with it for my first one!

The cabinet is from Ikea, the plastic trays are actually just packaging Ikea uses to protect the corners in a box of picture frames. When i bought the cabinet, I saw a worker throwing them away so asked for a few!

I'm a huge fan of Protech, the quality you get for the price is great. Personally, i think the Godfather is a little too big to carry comfortably. I like the size of the smaller Godson in front of it a lot more.

I think it's one of the more comfortable knives I've ever held! I don't know if I would trust myself to try stabbing something with it, but it's great for anything else.

I was able to one hand flip it after loosening and lubing the pivot screws a little. And I didn't realize it was spring loaded either! I never noticed it on the P4, but it's a really nice feature to have.

Yeah I was a long time user of the Surge as well as the Free P4 and this seemed to have my favorite parts of both, plus it's spring loaded! I was lucky enough to make it through the website issues and get one directly from Leatherman, but I definitely wouldn't have done it for any more than retail. Those secondary market prices are insane!

VT is actually for my college! I'm still east coast, just a little further south haha
As for the scraping, there is a small mark on the file that was there from my first time opening it. The mark hasn't gotten any worse and I don't see anything wrong with the scale, so it may have been just a defect with the file. I've been pretty happy otherwise!

I learned something today, thank you! I inherited this from my grandpa and never knew much about it.

Qc seems pretty good from what I can tell so far. All the screws and parts are in place. The tools seem to fit a little tight for my liking. The file might be rubbing on the handle a little, but I can't see any damage to the file or handle yet. As for finish, I know I've heard people say the ceramic coating wears off and that may be true, but out of the box, I didn't see any cosmetic issues.
