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.
