I love your ideas man. I think you have a great eye for detail and fresh innovative ideas. I too have the Gerber MP600 and I love that multi-tool, in fact, it's the first one I've ever owned. What you did with it is really cool.
I live in a stupid apartment and I wish I had a shop. If you were here in Winnipeg I would pay you to mod my multi-tools. All the stuff you do with knives and multi-tools is really cool. you could make some good money modding peoples tools!! More power to you.
DobermansRock IMHO mp600 is best shop multitool. It don't care about dust and other stuff I deal with every time, with Surge I need to be much more careful, it not always a thing I capable of, especially when taking some old stuff apart.
We tested them in the Army against the full size leatherman, SOG and some other riff raff. One handed operation overall was the first winning point. Super leatherman demands 2 hands. Super leatherman and SOG butterfly. its not positive enough for a plyer. For the money, ability anything the 600 is best.
That looks great! If you want to change the color of the clip to match the body but want something more durable than paint, you can try something like Gun Blue. I've had great luck with it.
Dillon YouSOB clip is actually not perfect, it creates too much tension to the small bolt. Thinking about making another version. Thanks for the sweet comment, I really appreciate that.
I've been reading about some folks that got conned into into buying some good quality knock-off's from China via Singapore. If put a call out for some of those, they were selling a few years ago for about $30 each. They were mainly DET models.
I`ve seen that knock-off`s a lot for sale in Ukraine. Its twice cheaper than new MP600. honestly, I don`t want to experiment on POS that have different steel quality and probably different construction than original tool
picking the ice?:) actually, ice pick is pretty useful tool that for some reasons not included in any multitool I`ve seen. this is why everybody buying one that diresta making
Um ice pick? Why not just pick up the MP 600 DET series? I have one and it has an ice pick maybe not a pocketclip but my small watch pocket makes it accessible none the less...
Turned out this clip design is not that good. It puts too much tension on small, thin screw. I left the video for inspiration but I can't recommend using this type of clip.
ahimè, non ho una camera di sabbiatura. Spero che tu capisca cosa ho risposto perché questo post è stato tradotto da un traduttore automatico. non parlo italiano:)
на самом деле с клипсой эксперимент был не удачным, признаю. надо бы придумать что-то более практичное и элегантное. из-за положения "плоскогубцами вниз" и конструкции тула последние постоянно открываются, что дико выбешивает. быть может будет V2, но я не обещаю.
I was looking to buy one. I have several Leathermans and like this Gerber. Unfortunately most now are China knock offs, not Made in USA as some us to have this stamped on the side. The quality of these knock offs is just what you would expect, crappy. If you do buy one on line, you dont know if is going to be a real Gerber. Sad, I wanted to get one of these.
You better buy Leatherman, at least it can cut the wire. If you wandering what I'm talking about - read reviews for replacement cutters on Gerber website
Finally some decent music to listen to while you show the different steps of work. Fits well!

Maurice Villatoro hi! I can, but I don't want to. All this stuff is just for fun.
How much to make a ice pick for me. Same multitool
That was the coolest thing I have ever seen.
thanks)
I realize I’m late to the party but this is a great video, my favourite part as fixing a multi tool with a multi tool.
The Gerber 600 is the best money can buy. Everything else is just gizmos. You sir connected the dots.

the steel itself is durable enough and as it my tool only, i can stand about it color)
Very nice! A low profile pocket clip too!
Serious craftsmanship.
I finally have some shop time! Check out new video!
@Matt Man hi. This pocket clip is not perfect cause it creates to big load on tiny screw. I guess, better idea is making some leatherman style clip
@Matt Man no. I don't want to make you ruining your tool.
I wish I had those sorts of skills...I need a pocket clip for most of my MT's but dont have the tools. You should sell them!

Just got myself a mp 600 and was looking for mods online. Would you consider making a pocket clip for sale?
nope. This clip is far from perfect, cause it puts incredible force on tiny screw. with really small threads.
Great modification!
Mirock's Woodshop thanks!
Dope 🔥🔥🔥
Cool
Which side did you put the clip on it which measuring side ?
Planning to put a clip on mine .
If you'll do it my way - find another one. Clip creates insane tension on bolt head, it will break really fast.
I’m using a old spuderco clip
Spyderco clip
@@erickang8894 I can`t recall what side it was (watch the video carefully) and I don`t have a tool itself anymore, so I can`t check.
@@DmytroLutsenko ok
SICK Modification dude!
im guessing you don't make the picks to order? i just bought a uk legal mp600 and would like to replace the the remgrit quick release with a pick.
No, I don't. The mechanism is 99% patented by Gerber, so I do not want to be sued because of violation of intellectual property.
@@DmytroLutsenko OK thank you for getting back to me.
Hey! Do you make pocket clips for the MP600?
You have inspired me to make a couple mods.
Can you send a link to the soundtrack for this video?
Thanks. It was a while ago, can't remember where I've got the music, sorry
The pocket clip was the best idea integrated. The ice pick was iffy.
in real life it`s totally opposite. Clip was taken of in few weeks (need to be redesign) but ice pick i use every other day,
I look forward to seeing the revised clip.
and i`m looking for other MP600 I`m not afraid to trash)

You you make the replaceable cutters? I just picked up the mp600 and they aren’t replaceable.
Joe Elmore mp 600 available in uncountable number of configurations. Not all of them have carbide inserts.
Boy... That is one big pocket clip😊
Why do you need an ice pick? Do you work for KGB?
picking the ice?:) actually, ice pick is pretty useful tool that for some reasons not included in any multitool I`ve seen. this is why everybody buying one that diresta making
Um ice pick? Why not just pick up the MP 600 DET series? I have one and it has an ice pick maybe not a pocketclip but my small watch pocket makes it accessible none the less...
Sparky Survivalist I hold DET ones, it not as good for shop use. At least for cases I usually use mine mp 600.
Nice work
厲害!
Great from thailand
Nice!
It does work.....
Can you mod the clip and sell it?

Effing dope!
Belle realizzazioni, personalmente avrei sabbiato la clip per nascondere i piccoli segni della lavorazione
ahimè, non ho una camera di sabbiatura. Spero che tu capisca cosa ho risposto perché questo post è stato tradotto da un traduttore automatico. non parlo italiano:)
Молодец !
I would pay you to make a pocket clip for my Gerber MP600 multi-tool! Please let me know!
Clip puts too much stress into tiny screws, it's not perfect option at all.
Uses leatherman to grab the piece of metal for the clip
That’s what there good for 😉
And it actually wasn’t
Диреста умный))
NIce.
I'm considering replacing the knife with a belt cutter
нихера ж себе клипса) как пол мультитула

@@DmytroLutsenko может ножны из кайдекса или абспластика? Типа ua-cam.com/video/TpZU2rAQvs8/v-deo.html
@@MrSteshin не то, будет мешать. юмор клипсы в том, что тул в глубокий карман не падает, а находится на его *выходе*
How to build a Gerber:
Step one; Grab your Leatherman
lol
Congrats, you just fucked off Gerbers lifetime warranty
I am happy with my leatherman Wave and Surge, no mods necessary. Wirecutter doesn't chip.

You could a had louder music. NOT!
This is coming from a machinist, use oil
James Carpenter I do. Not always, but I do. I've changed my work flow a lot since this video went live.
noticed the same thing wd40 has it's uses but this isn't one of them
Totally useless and unnecessary conversions, an ice pick really❓how useful is an ice pick "In the grand scheme of all things"
Malignus Totalis I don't care. It's shop tool, in the shop ice pick is extremely useful.
Nice!
