Nipper
A nipper, components thereof, and associated methods. The nipper includes first and second jaws, and first and second levers connected to respective ones of the jaws. The jaws are pivotable about a pivot axis to move cutting edges of the jaws toward and away from each other. The jaws and levers have a keyed connection for conjoint pivoting of the respective jaws and levers about the pivot axis. A retainer is configured to retain the cutting edges in a closed arrangement. The nipper includes a poker for cleaning paint from an eyelet of a lure or fishing hook. The poker is movable between stowed and deployed positions with respect to a lever of the nipper.
Relief guard for hand tools
A cutter comprising a first cutting portion having a first cutting edge, a second cutting portion having a second cutting edge and pivotally coupled to the first cutting portion, a relief aperture defined by the first and second cutting portions adjacent the first and second cutting edges, and a relief guard coupled to the first and second cutting portions to at least partially cover the relief aperture such that an object to be received between the first and second cutting portions is restricted from entering the relief aperture.
Cutting tool with magnifier
In some embodiments, a magnifier defines a longitudinal axis A. The magnifier includes an arm with a distal end and a proximal end. A magnifying pane is located at the distal end and an engagement member is located at the proximal end. In various embodiments, the arm includes a distal segment, a mid segment, and a proximal segment. The distal segment is generally linear having a length L1 projected onto the longitudinal axis and is angled about 45 degrees relative to the longitudinal axis A. The mid segment is generally concave having a length L2 projected onto the longitudinal axis A. The proximal segment that is curved having a length L3 projected onto the longitudinal axis A and is convergent relative to the longitudinal axis A.
Hair Shearing Device
A hair shearing device includes a pair of bars that is pivotally coupled proximate to a first end of the pair of bars so that inner faces of the bars are in substantial abutment. The pair of bars is configured to selectively pivot from an open configuration to a closed configuration. A biaser is coupled to the pair of bars proximate to the first end and is positioned for biasing the pair of bars to the open configuration. A pair of bevels is positioned singly and opposingly in the bars proximate to a second end of the pair of bars to define a cutting section and a gripping section of the pair of bars. The gripping section is configured to be grasped in a hand of a user to pivot the pair of bars to the closed configuration to sever hair that is positioned in the cutting section.

Sewer's multi-tool assembly
A sewer's multi-tool assembly for performing multiple sewing tasks with a single tool includes a pair of scissors that is hingedly coupled together for cutting fabric. A pair of magnets is provided and each of the magnets is coupled to a respective one of the scissors. Each of the magnets magnetically engages a sewing machine when the scissors are positioned on the sewing machine. In this way the scissors are inhibited from falling off the sewing machine. A pair of grips is each coupled to a respective one of the scissors for transporting the object without cutting the object. Each of the grips is spaced apart from each other when the scissors are closed such that neither of the grips impedes the scissors from closing and thusly cutting. A seam ripper is coupled to a respective one of the grips for ripping seams.

Shearing tool
A shearing tool includes a first and second shearing portion and a retaining mechanism. The first and second shearing portions are pivotally engaged with each other. The first and second shearing portions are movable relative to each other between a first relative position and a second relative position. The retaining mechanism includes a first retaining portion and a second retaining portion selectively engagable with each other to retain the first and second shearing portions in the second relative position. The first retaining portion is formed on a first retaining member which is pivotally engaged with the first shearing portions. The second retaining portion is formed on a second retaining member which is connected to the second shearing portion.
