This seems like it would be the perfect sling for me, but it’s a bit more than I would feel comfortable paying for it on the off chance it’s not. Wish more companies would use some Velcro panels for customization (and definitely would love to see more slings with a roomy main compartment).
@RonKwokКүн бұрын
Definitely feel that. I’m surprised not more companies incorporate Velcro to allow for modular configurations. Moment recently released a 4L sling that’s pretty spacious with a main compartment that has a Velcro divider that you can adjust 👍

I’m a dental student and this tool is really useful in lab. Usually I have to cut some rubber tile for my pour ups and do some plaster or 3d printed refinement with the file. I also use the other tools to help me access and unclog my mannequin tubing. Overall, it’s worth the money because I’m left handed and the tool can be reconfigured for my kind 😂. The one handed operation is useful because unlike the leatherman charge, I don’t have to break my nails and change my gloves to access the inner tools. I also need my hands to contain or hold other things occasionally.

Luxury brands only change their strategies for the super rich...The price increases of Fendi, LV, Givenchy and the like are nonsense. Therefore, those ordinary rich people or middle- and upper-class people who can really afford it need to think twice before buying it. If they are just looking to save face, they will buy from kislux .

The PD cube is a GREAT one and I’ve been using it personally for years. My only gripe with it is that the zippers don’t zip all the way around (they each zip halfway around, if that makes sense) and when I stuffed it to the max, the zippers would separate a little and I could never understand why that was a design decision.
