Abstract: An operational tools carrier, such as a pocketknife or a tool card, having a portion formed from a transparent or translucent material has been found to have various functional benefits in addition to the clear ornamental effects of transparency/translucenary. A pocketknife typically has a retaining body or frame in which tools can be stored. The frame has two side walls that lie opposite each other and that have been separated from each other by means of narrow side faces and front faces. A scale is provided on at least one of the side walls typically has retaining areas for removably holding operational tools, e.g., tools, knives, scissors. The side wall or scale forming the side wall is transparent in at least one partial area. A flat tool card formed from two plates coupled together to form a retaining are therebetween for strong flat tools thereon. At least a portion of at least one of the plates forming the tool card is transparent or translucent.

Abstract: A pocket tool with a housing body with two oppositely lying side faces bounding at least certain regions thereof, and at least one housing area between the side faces, and an implement displaceable out of a stowed position inside the housing area and an operating position outside the housing area. The displaceable implement has a housing case with two oppositely lying side walls extending substantially parallel to and spaced apart from the side faces, and slim faces extending between the side walls, and at least one electrical lighting means provided on the housing case. The lighting means is provided on a side-end first slim face of the housing case remote from the housing body. An axis of symmetry of a beam emitted by the lighting means and a plane oriented perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the pocket tool subtend an angle which is freely adjustable. The invention further relates to a switch connecting mechanism for a switch contact in an implement of the pocket tool.

Abstract: The disclosure includes a device for protecting a blade of a knife, scissors or the like, consisting of two largely congruent partial surfaces that are designed as one piece with one another, of which at least one contains on essentially its entire surface an adhesive and which can be glued together while sandwiching the blade in between them, wherein the two partial surfaces are connected with each other along a folding edge containing a perforation and at least one of the partial surfaces contains a projection protruding beyond the congruence area.

Abstract: The invention relates to an especially handy and user-friendly multiple purpose tool for the sport of golf, which is light yet solidly built. Operation of the pitch fork is done with one hand, as well as the removal and insertion of the ball marker. The blade of a new kind of tee hole puncher for hard or frozen ground also serves for cleaning the flutes of the golf club. It is also combined with additional functional elements like nail files, cap openers, and the like. The economically manufacturable tool can also include, for general use, a knife blade, a scissors, a pincer, a tooth pick, a ball point pen, and other tools as the case may be.

Abstract: The invention relates to an implement holder, in particular for a pocket knife, or a flat-design storage case having a housing body with one or more housing compartments for at least one implement which can be moved out from a rest position into a position of use, e.g. a knife, corkscrew, screwdriver. A writing instrument is provided as an implement and the housing body projects beyond the implement forming the handle thereof in a ready-to-use position.

Abstract: A hand-operated wire cutting tool comprises a pair of jaw members interconnected and movable with respect to each other about a pivot axis between an open position and a closed position. A wire cutter portion is formed in each of the jaw members, each wire cutter portion having an inner surface and an outer surface, the inner and outer surfaces defining a cutting plane and the outer surface of each wire cutter portion intersecting the inner surface to form a sharp edge, the sharp edges passing closely alongside each other in the cutting plane as the jaw members move from the open to the closed position. A notch is formed in each of the sharp edges, each notch having a bottom surface angled less than 90° to the cutting plane. A recess is formed on the inner surface of at least one of the wire cutter portions adjacent the notch, the recess forming a gap between the inner surfaces of the wire cutter portions near the notches when the jaw members are in the closed position.
