Custom crafted Leatherman accessory

Post by Jim Walsh »

A buddy of mine, a machinist by trade, gave me an accessory for my Leatherman. He made one for his own use and found it useful and I may also. I have individual fids, and fids coupled with riggers knives, but this is pretty neat. He machined it from 6061 aluminum alloy. It fits into the screwdriver accessory socket.
Can one have too many fids? :D
