I generally have a backup for my backup.
I usually bring an extra small fixed necker with me in a remote location. But I lean more and more over time toward bringing a multi tool, I have for years now, particularly when going out of town. Need to tighten a hose clamp, multi, need to open a can of beans to warm on the shore then lift it off the fire, multi, need to tighten a screw on a metal detector out in a field, multi. On and on. I have lost or forgotten to bring tools at times and really felt the loss. I rotate different SAKs on my key chain, but a multi with needle nose pliers has been far more versatile. I prefer multiple tools out of town. I left a Super Tool 300 out at an auto wreckers once. Stuff happens, I like one or two back ups. Mainly when I am far from town, which my metal detecting wanders often take me.No - unless going for a trip and even then it’s multitool most of the time.
