How do you delete tools?

[Bladesinger]

I accidentally bought a second pair of Shears, only to then realize I had a some in a chest from before. Now I can't get rid of the second pair of Shears. I've tried selling them back to Marnie, deleting them and throwing them out of my inventory, but nothing worked! Anyone know how I can get rid of these?

Craft a chest, put it on the ground with nothing else near it, put the shears in the chest, place a bomb next to it.

Gotta love that the only way to erase a tool is by murdering it... Why...?

Oh I didn't know you could do this, does it work with the slingshot too?

Yes, you can just put excess tools or whatever things in a chest and the NPC pathing will take care of it for you and delete it. Easiest place to get items deleted is outside of Pam's trailer if you wanted to do that (like on her route to the bus or other places).

Fastest method: try to put smth into trash can as usual, but after it press "community center" button above it. Done.

This doesn't work anymore, it was patched a while ago

This works but is clearly a bug
