How many of you go without a multitool?

I EDC my Vic Spirit and I use it pretty well every day at work. I carry it even when I'm not working. It's so light, I forget it's on my belt.

Kind of self explanatory but was wondering how many of you guys don't carry a SAK or Leatherman type tool in the woods? I've been playing around with different combo's and the full size Wave just isn't working for me. I'm basically going out with a P4 and a Ritter Grip, along with fixed blade etc.

I edc a small stockman or a delica or sometimes a 550HG.

In the woods I carry a alox soldier or farmer (along with a larger knife). I carried the alox soldier for years and never lost it but I do like the "insurance" of a lanyard on the farmer

I've never ever had a need for the pliers unless I'm fishing which isn't too often.

Oh: as somebody suggested, I've also taken to cutting thin strips of duct tape and taping large-eyed needles and small fishhooks into the channels the various tools fold out of in the multi-tool handles. Just another way of having handy gadgets at hand when you need them.

That's a good idea, thanks! Going to the range today, and if you've never worked with the new MOLLE/PALS webbing, a pair of pliers is indespensible!!! The plastic PALS clips most certainly are a pain and you can tear your fingers up pretty bad...pliers really helps to weave them through the webbing. I need to keep a small list of daily uses for my pliers over the next couple of weeks. Biggest adavantage of my Leatherman Charge over my Spirit is the tool bit adapter. I also carry the additional tools and the hex bits are extremely useful at work...mosty for military related gear such as removable iron sights, optics, holsters, knives and sheaths. A few co-worker often need the smaller screw driver bits as well.

I carry a Leatherman SideClip almost everywhere. Very handy for the minimal weight, and a compact package.
 
I always have a Leatherman Charge Ti and a Swiss Army Knife on me for work or woods. The Charge Ti is even in my bathrobe pocket until that comes off too. TMI for this forum beyond that. Interestingly I had cause to pull out my SAK in the presence of a couple of Swiss clients recently and quickly ended up presented with a pair of perfect SAK duplicates ... modelled in Swiss chocolate! Of course they don't open or cut worth a shit but they sure taste good.
