Patent attributes
A multi-purpose folding tool including a pair of folding scissors, in which a scissors blade is movable about a pivot shaft, between a stowed position and a deployed position. A rocker is moved by a spring in the tool handle and urges a movable scissors blade toward an open position. In one embodiment two handles are folded about respective scissors blades to house the blades, and four springs hold the handles together with the folded scissors stowed within the handles. Protruding ears overlap and are located along side each other to hold the handles in place with respect to each other during use of screwdriver blades. When the tool is folded it has a smooth outside configuration allowing it to be carried in a pocket without causing undue wear.
