Cheap, disposable multi-tool with braid scissors.
Yup get a pair of scissors, (craft dept at Wally World cheap) I have a Leatherman Wave and Buck Multitool , stay away from those China made fakes, it's tempting because of the price, but I've found there are some things to save $ on, tools aren't one of them. Buy Good Stuff Once.
thanks jollymon. been down the cheap road more than once, does your buck have a clip on sheath or beltloop? i think i would prefer clip. thanks again
I had a kydex sheath made at a Gunshow that has a loop that I can slip on and off but holds well.and was only 15.00 and it will stay in upside-down too.
Wish I still had it, gave it to my son
IMO, you can't beat Victorinox...have had one since my military days. I imagine they have a model that fits your needs...pricey now, but worth it.
Good Tool's are worth spending Good $$. $$ on. Buy once, cry once
I have these. They work really well. I'm going to buy a second pair to keep in my kayak so I don't have to remember them!

Jollymon, I do kydex for my knives. What tool?
I had one made for both of mine, The Buck 320 BUCKTOOL don't know if they still make it anymore, the other is the Leatherman Wave.
I carry two things now for cutting braid , a sm. pr. of scissors from Walmart craft dept. and Burkley Hot Line Cutter I find myself using it more now because not only will it cut in melts the end so no frayed end , I know it doesn't matter but it looks better.
For a good set of pliers check out The Bubba Blade Pliers, has nonslip grip, cutters,and it crimps , hate the sheath I'd like to get kydex.
Sorry, didn't mean to hijack the thread
I may buy one and make a run of mixed for em.
If your going to do Bubba Blade pliers, I'm good for 3Quote:

I got a pair of Calcutta braid scissors ($5) at J&M and put them on a retractable badge holder that clips to my belt loop. Scissors are always right there when I want them. Been carrying them this way for years and haven't hurt myself with them yet.

Gerber 400 and 600 sport (?). I have 3 400's and one modded 600. The 600 didn't come standard with the scissors, had to fix that.
