Description: |
| A pocket-knife type structure, with a clasped swing-out handle which in latched position serves to firmly hold replaceable tool "blades" with forms like knife blade, screwdriver, awl, gimlet and corkscrew. A spring in the case provides tension for the swing-out handle and the catch.
This is an improvement on the design which received patent no. 632,792. |
