I picked this up from US Ebay for $12 & I really like it. As a big fan of LM's blade/tool exchanger found on the Surge I could not resist this oldie
. It does look similar too Lion's new multi tool

The kit with a Vic Soldier for scale.Kit includes a file , flat screw driver & a drill bit. It is quite likely there were more bits than the 3 I have

With Soldier

I took this pic too show how thin the German tool is. It is too thin IMO , the thinness makes holding & using the tool a bit awkward/uncomfortable , if it was as thick as the Soldier it would be great.

The drill bit is quite long & thin. I am lucky my one is in such good nick as I reckon it would be very easy to bend in use.

Tool snaps into place beautifully & securely

The main blade & screw driver are the only tools to have markings, the tool's manufacturer(W H Morley & Sons Germany) & a 4 leaf clover.
It would be interesting too know how many of these type tools were made & if they made different sized ones. A larger & thicker one would have been a great multi tool.It would also be interesting too know how the tool was packaged , was it kept in a small box or a leather envelope/sheath

That does look a lot like mine. The knife is pretty close to identical. I wish I knew more, especially an idea of the age.

I've seen similar ones before and they've gone for more money than that, nice score
Bob will be along shortly to show you his five
I'm not taking any more mod orders at present, sorry.
