Do you have a dual purpose quilting tool?

Do you ever use a quilting tool for other than what it was intended for?
For example
I use my seam ripper as a stiletto when I'm sewing
I also use my Kwik Klip tool to help open up seams before pressing. It has saved me many a burnt finger when that seam folds over while I'm trying press it open.

The back story ... I was at my OBW course, and the teacher said to finger press each seam before adding the next piece of the hex. I'd never knew there was such athing, but one of the girls brought out a tool she'd purchased to do the job.
So when I got home, I gave the scraper and try ... and bingo! :)
