My tool bags usually get pounded pretty good in my truck tool box. The last bag I was using(in a post earlier in this thread) got beat up and was falling apart already. I switched back to an old McGuire-Nicholas i had that was built really good and took a beating. I figured I should clean it out and I brought it in the house today to clean it out,it is way to packed up with ****. The second pic is the larger stuff in the bag and My new Fluke 335 due to a recall. The last picture besides all my pens, tape, and white out was stuff i found in the bottom of my bag, even a 3/4"conduit tee.

I usually wrap the leads around the meter and tuck them under themselves to store them so they are not flying all over the bag.

Ideal Tufftote (Premium Leather) is the way to go for me, love it, fits everything I've ever needed, anything else is in the truck 
I don't know much about different types of bags or anything, and I dont claim that this is the best, but I love it, lifetime warranty and it never tips and it takes a beating |
Those Ideal tough totes are awesome! I have always wanted one. But if I used that at work half my tools would be gone in a week sadly

I noticed that some of you guys are using bx cutters. I was thinking of picking up a pair but was wondering how well they cut compared to a pair of diagonal cutters. Id like to hear some comments on them

This is the Dewalt Electrical/Maintenance Worker pouch, cost me $45 CDN, love the open access, easy to carry around, and it comes with a plastic parts tray that conceals in a bottom pouch (which I lost) , great for carrying marrettes and screws and the like.

The Veto looks mighty appealing. My major complaint about my current tote is that I have no room to lay a hammer flat and nowhere to stick my hacksaw. Might have to look at the XL as a next bag.
