In Praise of the Roxon S501U

    Best scissors I’ve ever seen on a multitool.  The scissors are made of German 4116 steel (equivalent to or slightly better than Victorinox steel).

    16 different blade attachments are available.  My favorites:

    * Utility blade in 5K5 steel (pictured)
    * Diamond file
    * Multitool (strap cutter, bottle opener, can opener, wrench – 10 tools in all)
    * Saw
    * Comb

    I recently took it on a whitewater rafting/camping trip. I used the file attachment as it paired great with my Leatherman Signal (pliers, hammer, saw, knife, screwdriver).

    It’s 4.4″ closed and weighs 4.6 ounces. I have two. I keep one in my kitchen for package opening and various scissor tasks, and one in my toolkit. The utility blade opens one-handed. The S501U uses a liner lock. Mine sits at a perfect 50% engagement.
