A force-limiting and damping device has a body, a tapping element, and an elastic element. The body has a connecting segment and a holding segment. The connecting segment is formed on an end of the body and has a mounting hole. The holding segment is formed on the body opposite the connecting segment. The tapping element is connected to the body to move relative to the connecting segment. The elastic element is mounted between the tapping element and the connecting segment to abut against the tapping element and to enable the tapping element to move relative to the connecting segment. The structural relationship between the connecting segment, the tapping element, and the elastic element may provide a delayed rebound and damping effect to the reaction force, and the applied force is continuously transferred to a tapping object, and this may reduce noise and the loss of energy.

A collapsible fingerguard tool is disclosed. In some embodiments, a tool with a handle includes an open channel within the handle to receive a second tool with a collapsible fingerguard, a flared section at an entry of the channel, and a second tool having a collapsible fingerguard, wherein the collapsible fingerguard is pivotably attached to the second tool at a pivot pin, the collapsible fingerguard also having a spring to open the fingerguard, wherein the fingerguard collapses adjacent to a handle of the second tool when the second tool is inserted into the open channel in the handle.

A working toolkit includes an extendible shaft, a tool handle and a tool head, each having connection formations so that the tool handle may be releasably attached to one end of the shaft, and the tool head may be releasably attached to an opposite end of the shaft to form a working tool, and thereafter disassembled for storage and transportation in a compact form. The tool handle may be directly releasably attached directly to the tool head. A variety of connection formations are provided, particularly adapted for a tubular shaft. The working toolkit may include several different tool handles and tool heads for selectively forming a variety of working tools.

A cutting tool is disclosed for permitting a user to selectively chop and saw fibrous material. The cutting tool includes an elongate body having a first end and a second end disposed spaced from the first end. The elongate body defines a handle which is held by the user to hold the cutting tool during use thereof. The elongate body defines a slot and a channel cooperating with the slot. The slot and channel extend between the first end and the second end of the elongate body. A hatchet head is rigidly secured to the first end of the elongate body for selectively permitting chopping of the fibrous material during use of the cutting tool. A saw slidably cooperates with the channel such that in a stowed disposition of the saw, the saw is disposed within the slot and the channel. However, in an operative disposition of the saw, the saw is slidably moved relative to the channel away from the hatchet head for selectively permitting the user to saw the fibrous material.

A field dressing tool is a hatchet shaped tool having a U-shaped cutting tool opposite the hatchet blade. The interior of the U-shaped cutting tool has sharp edge to facilitate cutting of bone. The sharpened edge may extend to form a hook. The handle may include a stem that extends from the head and a gripping portion encircling a portion of the stem that facilitates grabbing and manipulating the handle.

A multi-folding axe includes a head and a handle. The head has a blade at one end. The handle has a base and an extension. The extension is rotatably attached to the head at a first axis. The base is rotatably attached to the extension at a second axis parallel to the first axis. The handle is substantially perpendicular to the head with respect to the blade when unfolded. The extension is substantially in line with and extending away from the base when unfolded. The blade folds into the extension by rotating the head in one direction about the first axis with respect to the extension. The extension and folded blade fold into the base by rotating the extension and folded blade in the one direction about the second axis. The blade is sheathed and secured by the extension and base when folded into the extension and base.
