Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0100377A1] Tool elements (1) rotating in and out of the tool holder (4) around a cylinder (2) of such dimensions and construction that it has a strength similar to the tool elements, The aperture of the cylinder can fit, for instance, a forefinger, and, together with the flanges (19) of the cylinder, it will provide the user of the pocket tool with a firm grip. The greatly increased width of the tool element around the cylinder provides for a locking device (3) consisting of a spring-loaded cath (9) and a recess arrangement (9, 10) at the rim of the tool element so as to hold the opened tool element securely when in use. The locking device can be released by pulling a catch, or with the aid of a lever (6, 7).
