I lost my leatherman. First real knife.

So about 2 months ago I was going through airport security and my EDC leatherman multitool somehow made it into my carry on baggage when I was packing at 5am. Needless to say, I was pulled up by airport security, asked to surrender, and lost something that was by my side for the majority of my adult life. I had that thing for 15+ years and it was bruised, beaten, used and abused.

In a pinch, I found a little kinchrome keyring knife that has been a stopgap while I figured out what to replace it with, and whilst it's been invaluable for the time I've had it, and getting used daily. I'd been squirreling away a bit of money every week until I could make a decision on (and afford) what to get.

And today it came in the mail! Where I live, everything costs about 2x the price of what it does in the USA (shitty exchange rate+scarcity is a thing)

Presenting my Para 2 Salt!

I have a feeling that this thing is going to be in my pocket for the next 15-20 years, and I couldn't be happier with my choice.
