can't find nrfjprog after install nrfConnect SDK v1.6.1 on MacOS

After installing nrfConnect SDK v1.6.1 on MacOS (Big Sur 11.5.1) using Toolchain Manager, I can't find nrfjprog.

When I try and run nfrjprog in Terminal, I get:
"zsh: command not found: nrfjprog"

Other command line tools, like nfrutil are available & seem to work OK.

The Toolchain Manager install seemed to have completed without any errors into the following folders:
/opt/nordic/ncs/v1.6.1
/Applications/SEGGER Embedded Studio for ARM 5.50d
/Applications/SEGGER/JLink
/Applications/SEGGER/JLink_V752c

In terminal, $PATH now returns:
zsh: no such file or directory: /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/bin:/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/Library/Apple/usr/bin

Does nfrjprog need to be installed manually or should it have been installed automatically by a clean install of nrf Connect by the Toolchain Manager?

How do I get nfrjprog? 
I am worried that there is something incomplete with my nrfConnect SDK Install?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

    I download that zip file you pointed too. BUT it is not clear to me how I install those utility on my Mac!?
    There seem to be no instructions on what to do with the contents of that zip file & INSTALL those utilities in the right place (so that they are accessible in Terminal on Mac). So questions is:

    1. Must they be installed in same folder as nrf Connect (in my case that is: /opt/nordic/ncs/v1.6.1/ )?

    2. How does one install from tha downloaded zip file (on MacOS)!?
        It seems they are python utilities & I am not very familiar with python & how to install from this type of file).

    Thanks!
