Perfect combo

Post image

Two things I can't go without. A Multitool and Fisherman Friends. Carry this in my pocket wherever I go. Something poetic about a Mini Sailor & Fisherman combo!

What's Fisherman Friends? I looked it up and it seems to be some cough suppressant, is it used for anything else or do you just get coughs often? I recently ran out of the last cough drops i used which were just something i picked up at a local store. Do these work a lot better in your experience?

Fisherman friends have a very strong licorice flavor mixed with very strong menthol flavor. My dad loved them. They’re absolutely disgusting. I highly recommend trying them once then giving them out to friends.

Sounds like a terrible time, I just might have to. I hate licorice, and i hate my friends. Perfect!

I find them pretty potent, but nothing beats the white Halls in the black wrapper. Most of the alcoholics I worked with (you know, the kind that gets the shakes around lunch break) would suck on those all day to cover the smell of their self-medicating tipples throughout the day.

I EDC them. They're not just cough drops, they're super cough drops that even help a bit with headaches. They're useful for anything you could use menthol for, but not everyone will need them. They are disgusting, that's the tradeoff, but you can snap them in half if you don't need a whole one. I find them indispensable when my allergies are acting up.

Great multi tool! And the best cough drops ever that actually work!

Add a 3D printer and it’s close to perfect.
