    Ok. I bought one of these three weeks ago based on this post.

    Holy shit.

    I’ve been a Leatherman or knife carrier most of my life. But I have reached for my new Fastback more than most multitools I’ve ever owned.

    In these past weeks I have:

    • Taken a fence apart to back a truck into the yard of a friend who was moving.
    • Opened several boxes that I wouldn’t have needlessly dulled my knife blade on.
    • Removed the blade to scrape residue off of a window more than once.
    • Used the flathead to pry whatever small retaining clip needed persuasion.
    • Cut the end of of zip ties totally flush.

    I know not everyone will have this experience. But the disposable blade coupled with a 1/4" bit was an absolute game changer for me.

    Thanks, OP
