I set out to find a new fishing multi tool, since I didn’t want to use my Victorinox. I found the Sheffield Angler 17 in 1 Multi Tool, made by Great Neck Saw. It’s everything you need, and nothing you don’t. It weighs in at 9 oz. and folds to just 4.5″ long. No, it doesn’t open with the flick of one wrist like the new Gerber Flik Fishing Multi Tool, but at $90 retail for the Gerber I like the Sheffield a bit better, despite the inconvenience. At least if I lose it I won’t cry on the way home from fishing, I will just buy another one.
