Continuing on the theme of odd-ball multi-tools I give you the Gerber Curve. (Presented with a Dime for scale because I think I'm more funny than I actually am).

Highlights include:

  • locking!
  • 7 tools if you count 2 different patterns on the file (both patterns not pictured)
  • 8 tools if you think you can use the small flat-head also as an awl (which is a bit of a stretch)
  • bottle icon in case you didn't know what to do with the other end.
  • spring-loaded retainer
  • speed holes!
  • fits inside the blade length of a Benchmade Bugout

I can paint some racing stripes on if that helps!

Neat, seems a bit along the same usage lines of a Swiss Army Classic, but less dumb.

Kind of. The size and shape makes it a pain to hold and use and the lock is sometimes /too/ effective and I find it difficult to unlock. The saving grace for me is that it only cost $5 when I bought it. :)
