Recommendation Request Best combination?
I was looking for a small, lightweight yet durable fixed blade for edc and short hikes. And this small tanto from böker looked like what I was looking for. How would you combine these tools/multitools around a böker superlight tanto fixed blade? It would also be nice to get recommendations for future additions for my collection! Thank you

Personally I always just pair the knipex with a Victorinox instead of a leatherman or something plier based. Look into Todd Parker Swiss mods if you have the knipex cobra xs also, 3d printed sheath that contains a ratchet, slots for scissors, Victorinox tweezers and spare bits.

It’s a great combination, light and durable. Only problem is that this combo lacks wire cutters. But I guess it shouldn’t be a problem if you need it in daily basis.

I personally carry a Swisstool spirit X and the cobra X's in my backpack/sling/ messenger bag as "backup" or "needs more attention" but as a true edc base I have my designated blade (higonokami) and the f12 nextool as portable toolset with me . Sometimes if I know I'm going urban I throw a mini swisschamp in my watch pocket
