I'm looking for a rustproof scuba tool with pliers big enough to loosen or tighten a regulator hose or turn a tank valve if the knob falls off. Preferably I would want the tool to have a cutting surface in order to deal with cave line and zip ties. If possible, the ability to deal with cutting large fish hooks would be great too, although this aspect is not critical.
I want to dive with this tool in salt water and keep it in my dive gear on dive trips without the need to rinse with fresh water, dry and lubricate.
Currently, I periodically stock up on cheap leatherman knock offs from target or home depot when they go on sale, often purchasing them for less than 10 dollars each. Unfortunately their lifespan is limited due to rust.
I've looked at Dannmar sportfishing titanium pliers, but I was told by a seller that the carbide cutter blades will rust.
Any suggestions?
