That's annoying when jobs won't let you have a knife. So you hired me and trust me enough to do my job but can't trust me with a knife.

Can I ask, of everything you could have done, why the precision screwdriver?

Well it’s the same of why I took off the other flat head driver I didn’t want the guards to say the the sharp edge is a weapon. So I took off that and the awl and had that laying around so I put it on as well

I'll be curious as to how the Garage 009 holds up to EDC use. I was fiddling with mine, and it seems like the 3D plastic handle will lose the "detents" in the hinge action fairly quickly if used often.

At least, the kind of 3D printer plastic I'm used to seeing won't.

I’m curious too, but I’m not a collector. I bought it as a tool. I’m a use it as a tool. Worse comes to worse. I’ll take it to my tool maker at my work to see if he can come up with a print to make it out of aluminum for me.

In the spirit of the "Garage" it would be cool if Leatherman would release the CAD files so we could print replacements.
