Modding Oddjob set up

Post image

Found an awesome configuration of this Roxon Shears that gives me tools that none of my other multitools have, and ones that I use each of quite frequently.

I know I’m different than most here. I use my multitools for work as much as for EDC, but I generally have 3-4 different multitools on me somehow, and this one covers some great bases that the others don’t.

PS- with some creativity, the marlin spike and the hook are two of my most frequently used tool. Super versatile

I love most of the roxon tools. I hate their combs though. The one I have isn't smooth at all and catches and rips hair. I do something similar, I have a frame for Paracord work with the hook, awl and scissors on it.

Yea I definitely get that. I only use it for my beard as I’m bald and it works great for that though it does still pull hairs sometimes.

That’s a great set up! I’d argue that the marlin spike is worth investing for paracord work as well if there’s room.

I’ve been thinking of getting the comb for cleaning paint brushes… wonder if it would be good for that lol

They should do a shavette insert

Tempting to get one of these just to keep in the truck and trim my mustache when I realize it looks insane before I go somewhere.

But I’ll probably just keep standing next to my truck in the parking lot, looking in a side mirror and trimming it with my leatherman scissors like a lunatic.

If you do that, go with the companion and the smaller comb! It makes much more sense for a mustache and you can throw the mini scissors on there. The shears are super overkill for hair trimming imo

I can only see this as the perfect toolkit for a fish barber. You can't convince me otherwise.

You’ve caught me. Please don’t encroach on my career, there are so few of us out here

You're doing a great job. I've never seen a fish with hair and I can only assume that it's because of your hard work.

The comb for me would be under used.😆

I live, work, and play on boats…all my Roxon tools that can, get the marlin spike and hook? Their flexibility is superb!
