One Spyderco helps another.

After a fairly rotten day, 1000 mile round trip in 19hrs + disappointing trade show, my day was really rounded off when a plastic tray on the side of a train seat caught in and sprung the clip on my standard <img src="sad.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>

It was bent out about 9mm and would no longer clip to a pocket.



But then stepped up the SpyderWrench. The long Philips screw driver was first used to take the screws off, then the slip-joint pliers and adjustable wrench were used to straighten the clip.

Getting the Standard back in working order was very satisfying, so I guess every cloud does have a silver lining <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>

Excellent story if I may say so myself <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle> What trade show did you go to? Why was it disappointing? Sorry to hear that it was disappointing <img src="sad.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>

It's bringing tears to eyes. (Tears of joy)
Gald it worked out .

&quot;Sure you loaned it to your friend and when you got it back the tip was missing.&quot;


It's always nice to carry a big stick that you can sharpen (w/ a spyderco)into a big spike and still walk softly.

Just wait until the day that you need that standard to fix up your spydiewrench... now that'll be a touching story
