I always wondered why this channel doesn't have more subscribers. Maybe it's because it is UK based and not US?? Is it because the focus is not on knives (which is probably the epicentre of EDC videos)?? Who knows....Anyway, I get most of my ideas on EDC here and I thoroughly enjoy what to me seems the absolutely best presentantion of the products anywhere on YT. Thank you Jonathan, for yet another absolutely enjoyable and informative video. Can't wait for your next one....

Zapwizard Designs had a bunch of useful aftermarket LM stuff and some good holsters. The main add-on I use is the ratchet driver, makes the bit driver experience so much better. Volty looks interesting but I’d rarely use it over a standalone tool. I basically never use any bits other than the one that comes with the Arc, but a carbide glass breaker would offer a but more piece of mind

how many LONG TERM - YEARS - out of stock LM accessories did you suggest? Bit Kit #1? Out of stock for over 2 years. Bit set #2 was out of stock for over 2 years, then beame available about a year ago. It MAY be out of stock again. I haven't looked recently. I bought it when it became available. I want a bit set #1, since mine is missing 4 bits. Whether it will become available again in my lifetime? who knows? LM has no idea when it will be back in stock.) Ratcheting Extension (coming up on THREE YEARS - maybe FOUR - out of stock. Currently only available USED on the big auction site -at 2x to 3x the suggested retail for new.) Standard extension? (I hear they are getting rare) 7-11L ratchet and equivalent? It gets sold out regularly, at least on the big south american river and jungle site. Good luck getting everything this year at a reasonable price. ($15 for the proprietary bit bit sets is NOT a "reasonable" price.) A 32 piece standard 1/4 inch bit set - or 128 piece 1/8 inch bit set with an adapter to use in a 1/4 inch bit driver is under $10.) LM has become an expensive joke.

In the UK, it's only called a “wrench” if the jaws are adjustable or if it's a torque wrench, otherwise it's called a “spanner” or sometimes a “key”. ( google search ). So for the metric users it would be a Ratchet Spanner, or more commonly just one word a Ratchet. Money is the edit, I stoped watching this video after the second time you said the price of an item then said pounds or dollars. As of this comment the Australian $1 buys 0.53 pound sterling and USA $1 buys 0.79 pound sterling. So saying something cost £30 or dollars is a gross misrepresentation of price. Just say the price in pounds and let the viewer do the conversion for their own currency. I will the video is well put together and well done.
@drxym6 ай бұрын
I honestly can't see the point of any of these things. EDC pouches are ten a penny, and if someone could put better things in it than these fiddly attachments. Buy a tactical pen which doubles as a glass breaker, a mini ratchet wrench, a voltage tester pen. The pouch is big enough for them. Leathermans are great tools, but their attachments & accessories are expensive and questionable at best.
