Some new Tools(+ a tool or two I hope to get) pt_two 2024

First, there is a well made Chinese copy of Gerber's US MILITARY variant of MP600.
I have found this to be a useful part of my Field Reloading kit for my Antique cartridge firing revolvers.

 

Second, is my brand new SOG PowerLock EOD Multitool...it's the 25th year that this model has been in production.





Third, is the SOG SwitchPlier, which I unfortunately don't own, but it is still listed as "in stock soon" on SOG's website.






The last Multitool today is a Leatherman inspired design from BiBury which recently cost me $18 CDN from Amazon.
It's a very practical tool set .

SOG's AEGIS Multi-Tool


 




I recently bought a full sized  SOG PowerLock Multitool & this little SOG Aegis MT.

Both have SOG's compound leverage technology which doubles the strength of the pliers, which is amazing!

@ 1.8 grams per Aluminum Roundball, these "Alien Play" projectiles are another option for the Umarex Walther-T4E PPQ M2 Co2 Pistol.

The injection molded Nylon/PVC "Riot Ball" are 13.3 grains per round, basically 50% lighter than the Aluminum ball.

Ram's Horn Damascus Folding Knife


 This is a handmade folding knife from Pakistan.

The Carbon Steel Damascus Blade has a very attractive pattern, plus it can be made to be sharp as a razor!

This is definitely not a "pocket knife", and came with a high quality leather belt holster.

BeaverCraft "BHS2" Bushcraft Knife

I have owned and used a BPS Knives "HK-5" Hunting Knife which was made in the Ukraine for well over a year, and it is one of most impressive sub $50 knives that I have ever encountered...and within a year, I noticed another Ukrainian knifemaker was being reviewed by various outdoorsman themed YouTube channels, as well as having several models available on Amazon.ca, so I put this $50 four inch blade Bushcraft model  in my cart and proceeded to check out when a little window popped into the screen asking me if I would like to buy this knife for $25!!! Obviously I clicked 'YES', and the next day I had my hands on the BeaverCraft BHS2 Bushcraft Knife, and began to compare it with my BPS Knives HK-5.
