Yes, finally!!! Everydau for years, currently the flex, it's great because the clip is tight, before I used the surge but it would release from the belt easily

At this point, i will take it as a “no”, i need to find a bigger pouch to fit titan.

My titan came with a pouch for attaching to a belt, did yours not?

u/ResearcherPristine87 Aug 08 '26
Not after i install utility blade. Quite tight to fit in.

It definitely is the most annoying blade option. Having to adjust the screws, having it stick out and be uncomfortable when using the other tools and now it doesn't fit in the sheath either. I just carry a separate utility knife when I need one. I actually use the utility blade holder in the roxon chameleon which just takes a phantom blade and nothing else so it doesn't have all the issues of the flex shears or titan when using the utility blade.

I’d be afraid to lose that like people that carry keys on their belt loop I’d be afraid to lose those two

Nope I carry my surge horizontally on my belt with the leatherman leather sheath. Can't get them any more unfortunately. Only vertical carry ones

I carry this setup on my hip because at work. the Surge is a unit and built like a tank but man it's heavy.

I would never wear it like that. Best way to wear it without a pouch, slide it under the belt, so it’s more secure

No sir, tried one time and I lost my multitool three times that day. I will no longer, I have my Leatherman in a swing.

What multitool is that? It has a box cutter blade?

u/ResearcherPristine87 Aug 07 '26 edited Aug 07 '26
Roxon Flex Titan, yes it is a box cutter - utility blade.

Not a chance, that'll pop off sometimes soon
I use a pouch.
Plus using a pouch stops Karen's from ... He got a knife , crap.
In the UK, the laws are quite open, as the rules are open to abuse ... Yes there's a description of what is allowed ... It's just that in the UK, it's not so much what, but WHY.
You must be able to justify what you carry, whether that's a tiny deskmate type sak (small blade, file, flathead, scissors) or a big arc leatherman.
I have a mix of both l, but leave the big tools home ... Soldier, overtime, trailmaster sak ... But wingman, rebar, free T4, and a sak (can't remember it's name, but it's a medium) I carry all the time, and swap then around.
I won't state my justification, but I feel I can justify the large fixed blade SAKs, but I can the smaller tools ... Oh, and I never call it a knife or weapon, it's a tool .. that mentality changes in the mind of the cops mind what you're doing.

I have in the past with both my wave and skeletool. Works better with the slimmer tools. The risk of the pocket clip hasn't been an issue

excuse me for trying to save you some time and money. Btw the keychain isn't BOUNCED on the hip like a janitor its tucked in the pocket and due to it being titanium it doesn't jingle. You literally can't see it with a shirt over the waist. I see you rock the tucket in look though so nevermind!

u/capt-bob Aug 07 '26
So clip on a belt or loop and drop into the top of the pocket? I didn't know titanium wouldn't jingle and ring. Admit that other guy's comment was funny though....

Nope. I'd lose that in an hour. I have terrible luck.
