Fisherman's Multi Tool

I just purchased 2 more of this awesome fishing multi-tool: one as a replacement for one lost while fishing, and the other as a gift. I think this multi-tool is great, and worth every penny. I use it all of the time, even in place of my regular line nippers. It's not much bigger than a pair of nail clippers but it includes several handy fishing tools in one neat little package. Instead of carrying multiple tools fishing you can carry just this one and have a knife, scissors, split shot crimper and opener, nippers, and a split ring opener, just to name a few. It really saves space, especially if you are hiking into your fishing destination. Whether you fly fish or spin fish, this tool is indis-pensible. Just make sure you have it hooked to a lanyard or zinger in case you drop it; you won't want to lose it, which is what happened to my original one, hence the replacement. I read a couple of reviews that commented that it should be bigger, but I disagree. It's meant to be a fine multi-tool for fishing needs, not a heavy duty item that I'd use for wilderness survival. It's a great multi-tool, at a great price, in a good sized package.

Nipper can be a little awkward to use but far out weighed by having so many of the tool one needs (split shot crumper/opener, eye cleaning needle, etc). Great compact little tool. Great gift for fly fisherman.

So I received it and opened it up. I decided to change my leader on my fly line with it. The first thing I did was ATTEMPT. To cut the leader off. The clippers edge just bent over, It could not cut the leader, this was just regular 5lb test tapered leader. So there you go, I cannot recommend this to anybody. Thats the one thing I will use the most..... For the price I could have bought a budget knife that would cut the line.

I've wanted one of these for years, and I finally found one here on Amazon at an affordable price. I like the fact that it has so many tools built into it.The only reason I'm giving it a four star rating instead of five, is because the cutter seems to be a bit weak. I was cutting off a fly from the tippet to put on a new one, and got the fly instead of the line. When I pressed down before realizing my mistake, the cutters received a serious dent in the cutting surfaces. I was not expecting the metal to be that weak, and I will be more careful moving forward.Overall though, this is a very handy tool, and I won't hesitate to buy another if I need to.

the line cutter doesn't work. other functions do.

Great tool to have handy - numerous applications and we’ll worth the investment. I may buy several more….

This is a great little gadget that I was referred to in a video sometime back. So I bought two: one for me, and one for a gift. I've used it each time I'm out on the river. Very handy. And the vendor delivered them right away, too.

Had my old one taken by TSA after having and flying with for 7 years.Took a few searches but found.
