Abstract

A multi-function tool includes a body, a clearing pin fastener, and a line holder assembly. The body includes a through-hole extending from a first surface to a second surface and defined by a threaded sidewall. The clearing pin fastener includes a head, a pointed end portion, and a threaded shank that is located between the head and the pointed end portion. The line holder assembly includes a line holder including a slit formed between a top portion and a bottom portion and configured to receive a line and a frame including a pair of opposing surfaces configured to hold the line holder in compression. The threaded shank is removably attached to the threaded sidewall so that the head is adjacent the first surface and the pointed end portion extends outward from the second surface. The line holder assembly is configured to rotate relative to the body about a pivoting axis.
