Lightweight Multiool w/Scissors

[cowboyarcher]

Hi all,

I've got it in my head that a smaller locking knife with a set of scissors would be great in the bino harness. Any good recommendations? It seems to me that most are way too heavy or don't have a decent knife on them.

Thanks for any leads!

I don’t remember where I got this, but it’s a handy little dude. I’ll try and find a name.

SOG Powerpint might be a good fit depending on how big of a knife you’re after. It’s a compact plier/multitool. I love mine and keep it in my chest pack at all times.

My fav is the Gerber Dime. Mini scissors, bottle opener, backup knife blade, box opener (which I use WAY more than you'd think), tweezers (ticks, splinters...) pliers (crappy but functional), two screwdrivers, and a small nail file. 2.2oz and $20 most weeks on the 'zon. Honestly, I never carry anything bigger any longer. I always have some kind of EDC or hunting knife for my real blade and this does everything else.

This is about as close as I could find. There’s not a name on the one I have, but I’ll keep looking.

Justin’s first pic may be a BHBT multi tool ?? Found on Aliexpress.
I also saw the Roxon that he posted and a Boker Plus version that I could not locate on any site.

Good luck with your search

Curious why sissors.
I know they can be used for something but in 35 years of messing in the woods I can always get it done with a knife.
Same with a leatherman wave,just to heavy for the 10% percent use.
I carry a knife and small ultra light silky or a knife and a small sak with a saw in possibles pouch.

Scissors suck on most these tools for any real cutting.

I found a real small pair of Fiskars at WM that are actually handy.

I keep a leatherman squirt in my bino harness, it’s got small scissors in it. I find myself using it quite often while backpack hunting.

They aren't an every-day item while I'm hunting, although I do find myself using them at least once or twice a year. They're a little better suited for trimming nails or mutant eyelashes, cutting off ankle tape, and that kind of thing. But my Dime is also an EDC item, whether I'm home or hunting, and scissors do have a lot of uses off trail. When you get to a restaurant after a show it's a lot less alarming cutting off the plastic admissions bracelet with a small pair of scissors than a 5" fixed blade.

I do also like always having a box opener, which I use while hunting to cut things like paracord (and keep my main blade from dulling). It's amazing for opening those awful plastic clamshell packages at home, too - much easier than scissors and safer than a knife. And I use the tweezers at least a few times a month no matter where I am, mostly for splinters.
