Just got one of these:





Gerber 600 Pro Scout. I have a 400 compact right now, I wanted something more full-size. Plus this one has an attachment for a standard jigsaw blade, which is cool.

What did that set you back?

It's very ironic that a company named "Gerber" is making knives, let alone such elaborate knives such as that! :zoinks:

"Gerber" is German for someone preparing skins from animals, so I think it's pretty accurate.

I got it for about $45 on Amazon. The name Gerber can be a bit confusing in the U.S. since the major maker of baby food has the same name. I do prefer the Gerber multitools over the Leatherman tools.

I was thinking of "Gerber Products Company" in the USA, which makes baby products...

Is the measuring on one of those levers in inches?



I bought some big pots to put in pansies. And some Ranonkels (Buttercup related flowers)
I can do upside down chocolate moo things!

Inches on one side, centimeters on the other.

Body moisturizer (coconut and melon, 2 kinds), ice cream and cake doughnuts.

10 bags of Tillamook shredded cheese - assorted varieties.

Usually $3.99 a bag, on sale for a dollar each (first ten only).

What the hell are you going to do with 10 bags of shredded cheese?  :zoinks:
