Stretch,
That's exactly where I bought mine - Lowe's, and for the same price as you mention. Just remember, it isn't a lightweight multitool, it does have more heft than most, but it pays off in performance when you need it. The compound leverage design beats out Leatherman or Gerber period when it comes to the pliers. I (again) really like SOG's choice of components and the way they are laid out. I'm single, so I didn't have to wait for Santa to put it under the tree for me. <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
