Commentary & Giveaway: Tie-Fast Combo Tool

About a year ago I came to the realization that I needed a pair of nippers. I was one that used a small multi-tool or my teeth to cut line, and well, between all the time wasted folding & unfolding said multi-tool, as well as that little birdie in my ear chirping that my dentist wouldn’t be pleased with my dental abuse, I broke down and dropped $16 on a set of nippers.

Tie-Fast Combo Tool – More Than Meets the Eye

What I actually ended up buying was a bit more than a set of 99 cent fingernail clippers. I picked up the Tie-Fast Combo Tool, set of nippers with some sharp blades but also contain an eye cleaner, hook sharpener, and best of all a mini version of the Tie-Fast knot tyer. (If there’s an easier way to tie a nail knot, I can’t think of it.) Best of all, this widget (like all of Tie-Fast’s tools) is made right here in the USA just like Hacksaw Jim Duggan. So suck it China.

HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

With all those great selling points, I know you’ve now got a bad case of nipper envy. Who wouldn’t?  So here’s where the giveaway comes into play courtesy of the folks at Sierra Stream & Mountain, makers of Tie-Fast Tools & J. Fair’s Eagle Fly Tying Supplies.

Easy enough? I thought so.  This isn’t meant to be challenging, so have fun with it.
And guess what, Tie-Fast has agreed to toss in a retractor too. It must really be your lucky day.

A retractor by any other name is just a zinger
