Select Fire + T-Tool = Knife-Maintenance Tool Knife
I got a hold of the Kershaw Select Fire a while ago and have found it to be extremely useful, not only as a knife but as a multi-tool. I already had the Kershaw T-Tool and have used it extensively for maintaining my blades, but found its cylindrical shape not very useful when tackling seized/tight scale screws and/or pivot screws. Just out of curiosity, I wondered if the T-Tool torx bits could fit into my Select Fire bit holder, and sure enough, they did. So I transferred the bits from the T-Tool into the Select Fire, and now I have a knife maintenance kit & knife all in one, which comes in handy for me as I regularly carry multiple knives and like to tweak and tinker with them.
For those that haven't seen the T-Tool or the Select Fire, here's some images....

Kg,
Thanks for the info. I haven't had the chance to handle a Select Fire yet. How is the grip when using it as a knife? Can you feel either the bit holder or the bits moving under hand when you grip it tightly? -

The grip is good when using the blade. There is a forward half-finger groove to accommodate the forefinger and the access relief for the thumb stud functions as a deep finger groove for the middle finger. The bit holder is recessed nicely, so it doesn't come into play with either palm or thumb placement. Additionally, there is a rearward half-finger groove that allows for a more secure grip when employing the bit holder.. The T-Tool bits fit in the bit holder snugly, the same as the bits that originally come with the model. The handle is black Glass-reinforced Nylon and has perpendicular channeling for an adequate purchase. The blade is a 3 3/8' 8CR13MoV stainless steel with a satin finish . At 5 oz I find it a very good "worker" EDC. One caveat though, it only comes in tip down mode, but does allows for ambidextrous carry.
