The max number of tools you've used on your multitool/sak at one time?

I think the most I've used is three. Last week I was repairing some lattices.

With my Leatherman Wave, I used the small flat head screwdriver (uno) to partially dig out staples from the wood. Then I used the pliers (dos) to pull the staples all the way out. After that I used the saw (tres)to cut a piece of broken lattice.

I suppose I could have used the PE blade of the Leatherman to mark one of the lattices where I was going to saw through it, and the SE blade to cut some zip ties that were attached to the wave, but I decided to use my HK14205 blade instead, because I like it more. Otherwise I could have upped the tool count to five.

hmmm.. Had to think about this for a minute, I use mine a lot but I think the most tools used under one task was fixing a water cooler at work.

I noticed the floor was wet around it, after investigation I found that there were a cold and warm hose on the inside and one was dripping. Used my leatherman wave to remove the phillips screws on the back grate (1), used the blade to cut off the end of the hose to get a fresh peace to reclamp on (2), and finally the pliers to resecure the metal clamp that was holding it together.

I think I use most tools on my SAK at one time when cooking at the camp. If I carry a Huntsman, then the scissors and can opener will be used to open packages and cans. The blade is used to cut meat and vegetables.

I put up a lot of pegboard on the wall above the workbench in my garage today. There is an electrical outlet on that wall that I needed to cut the pegboard around so I would continue to have access to it. Also hung a fluorescent light fixture from the ceiling above the workbench. I used my 111mm Soldier for the following:

1) Screwdriver to remove electric outlet cover plate.

2) Saw to cut the pegboard.

3) Serrated blade to smooth the rough edges on the cutout. (Worked great - really "fine shaved/sawed" that fibrous material - glad I had the serrated edge).

4) Phillips screwdriver to attach pegboard to the furring strips.

5) Awl to make holes in the ceiling drywall to be sure I had located the studs for the eyebolts from which to hang the new light fixture.

Since I was working in my garage, I had access to "real" tools, and used them when necessary, but it was fun seeing how much the Soldier could do!
