A few weeks ago, I had caught wind of a tool auction that was to take place on October 15th. I went through the listings, and noticed there were a couple of corkscrews. However, one lot consisted of multiple multi tools.
Some of the multi tools have corkscrews, and look to be those the turn up with regular frequency. One however, does is a bit harder to find!
I placed a bid with the auctioneer, and yesterday received an email confirming my winning bid. A nice lot of multiple multis, with one stand out–it looks to be a variant of the Nylin patent!
A similar piece was offered in trade to me at Brimfield this year, and I was reluctant to pull the trigger given the asking price.
A neat corkscrew multi-tool to add to the collection!
