A multi-purpose tool or apparatus includes multiple mechanical tools. In one implementation, the multi-purpose tool includes an elongated handle, a folding axe, and a folding shovel or spade, as well as a hammer or hammer-head. The folding axe is foldable between an open position and a closed position. The folding shovel is foldable among three positions, which are a closed shovel position, a 90-degree open shovel position, and a 180-degree extended shovel position. The elongated handle is hollow and includes an elongated cavity. A folding saw, as well as a knife and a sheath to protect the knife, are stored within the elongated cavity and can be removed therefrom.

A tool is provided in order to facilitate utilization by users in a wide variety of applications. By way of example, a multipurpose tool may include first and second handles configured for relative movement between a closed position and an open position. At least the first handle includes an axle extending thereacross. The multipurpose tool also includes one or more tool members rotatably mounted upon the axle and foldable into the first handle and first and second jaws rotatably connected to the first and second handles, respectively. At least the first jaw defines an opening through which the axle of the first handle extends. The multipurpose tool further includes a resilient member disposed at least partially within the opening in order to apply a bias force to the first jaw during rotation of the first jaw relative to the first handle.

A folding knife includes a handle and a blade. The handle includes a first side member, a second side member, a connector, and a locking member. The first and second side members are pivotably coupled to the connector such that the first and second side members are pivotable relative to one another. The blade includes a pivot member extending laterally from a surface of the blade, and the pivot member is disposed between the first and second side members. The locking member of the handle is movable between an unlocked position and a locked position. In the unlocked position, the first and second side members of the handle are pivotable relative to one another and can disengage the pivot member of the blade. In the locked position, the first and second side members are restrained from movement relative to one another and engage the pivot member of the blade.

Certain configurations of a base and clip assembly that can couple to a pocket device are described. In some instances, the clip can removably couple to the base without the use of any external fasteners. Illustrations of the clip coupled to pocket devices such as knives, mobile devices and other devices that can fit into a pocket are also provided.
