Well i'll be..... never knew about the custom etch model or the fisherman one! Did know about the corkscrew model though. Does the fisherman model have a file or are my eyes deceiving me?Looks like i've got a bit of buying to do! Thanks Bob!
The little Fisherman model is the most unique one of the bunch. Not only does it have a file (and a diamond file at that!) it also has a well made awl blade. Also has tweezers, but they aren't much use to me. Can't complain though, as they are thin enough that no other blades had to be removed to make room for them.
How long does the jaws stick out when closed on the fishing tool?
Wow, those stick out a lot.

Would love to put a diamond file in the MP600 Frankenstein i'm planning. Although that does mean i'll have to find two, one for the mod and one to keep stock.....this is going to get expensive!

For only $29.88, I may have to get one of these.Even though I'm not a fisherman, the tool selection on this looks really decent - especially the diamond file and extreme needle nose pliers.
