[origin: WO2022232151A1] A tensioning tool (1138) is provided for applying tension to a band. The tensioning tool includes a handle (1140). The tensioning tool also includes a barrel (1141) having a channel at an end of the barrel. The channel is configured to receive a portion of the band. The tensioning tool also includes a cutting blade (1554) that is configured to remove an excess portion of a band. The tensioning tool has a tension limit that is the maximum tension that can be applied to a band, and the tensioning tool is configured to apply tension to the band until the tension limit has been reached. The tensioning tool is configured to actuate the cutting blade to cut the band upon at least one of the tension limit being reached or upon a user command.
