old.. odd soviet multitool..

[ausjulius]

here is an onld soviet multitool , i dont recall where i picked up the  picture, swiped it off the net a lont time back. proably from gun.ru or such forum in their knife section,
anyway, it was a production tool back in the day, some time in the 60s or so i think.
it has 4 different spanners on the handle and a file and rasp ..
knife, wire stripper, awl and a flat head screwdriver..

It unusual to see a rasp on a multitool thanks for sharing that.

[ausjulius]

not a  problem, ive many pics of funky soviet and russian made multitool knives. but .... this one has a rasp.. i dont think ive ever seen any other knife with a rasp to think of it.........

[american lockpicker]

Was it a woodworkers knife perhaps or a custom one?

[ausjulius]

nope they made the knife en masse  in vorsma.  dont know the maker of this one but im shure 10000snds were made.. during communisim if something was in production i guess it was rely in production /,
i dont know the actuial market behind this tool maybe just the desingers fantacy , like most knives.. a  bolt turning carpenter who will strip wires.

I love these old oddities - it's like the archaeology of tools

Numbers 8 and 10...it's a metric wrench for nuts?

A rasp would be really handy on a woodworking sak.
