Been on the lookout for a good quality multi tool as kind of a “simple work around the house” for when I don’t wanna get into my tool box for something that’s overkill/carry in glove box for random emergencies.
That being said I liked the Rebar bc I never really saw a use for a small pair of scissors. After getting into knives I know there’s the mindset of “you’ll find any reason to use a tool”. Just curious what you all use the scissors for and if you would really notice not having them on you if you already have all the other tools/ a dedicated knife on you.

One of my most used tools in the LM Arc lol.
i used them constantly when i carried my Juice S2.. retired that one so i didn’t break it and the scissors on the Powerpint just didn’t do it for me.. now i go without carrying my Bond… the uses were random things like cutting string/tags or my kids straws shorter when we went out to eat… just seemed a lot less intimidating than flipping out my dedicated blade at the dinner table/public settings.
I leave the scissors work to smaller multitools like Juice or SAK. Bigger multitools with pliers don’t need scissors IMO.
The scissors on my arc are one of the most used tools for me. But that is pretty niche because most if that use is related to my job.
I use them more than the knife on my gerber suspension, I often find myself cutting things close to things I don’t want to cut.
I find scissors to be very useful.
I used to carry a Leatherman. I found it bulky and I mostly just used the pliers. Now I’m in a shop all day full of tools.
Multitool scissors get useful for personal grooming 90% of the time. Trimming nails, trimming mustache/beard… sometimes fishing tasks.
Leatherman scissors are also great at cutting zipties if your job regularly calls for that kind of thing.
