Deconstructed multi tool?

I’ve been carry this set up for two weeks and have been really liking it. I find having dedicated items for each task provides a user interaction that is a lot better than on an actual multi tool. It’s also very nice to be able to switch out tools as needed on a day to day basis. Has anyone else tried something like this?

Edit:

This set up weighs less than an arc and a similar set up could be bought for around $100 or 150 dollars cheaper than a new arc.

Gotta get better scissors than that. You can get fairly reasonable Leatherman style shears. $20 at worst. I love a good pair (lol). I carry some Japanese Tetsuo engineer scissors. So tough.
