Still another strange multi-tool............
on: April 18, 2016, 08:29:44 PM
Picked this one up yesterday at a local auto parts swap meet;along with a great old machinists' tool chest and several other knives.
Only marking is a diamond logo with the words,"Stainless Steel" underneath.Average quality;looks possibly Japanese made. Tools include:knife;fork;spoon;long awl;combo cap lifter/can opener,and what appears to be an old style potato peeler.Couldn't pass it up for $5. Anyone ever seen one like this?

OK;just finished doing a little repair work to it to make it useable;it is after all nearly a hundred years old.someone had put the date(1924)inside the top. When I got it the front cover wouldn't stay on properly due to the wood being worn away over the years.Someone had attempted a repair using a piece of steel that failed to work. I made up a piece using 3/32nds thick plexiglass that seems to work well.
There were two drawer knobs missing. I found some that are very close at the local building supply shop for $3 pair. At that price I might replace them all to match.
The lock was not functioning so I took it apart and repaired it.The original key was in one of the drawers which is nice.
All that is left to do now is replace the felt in the drawers and give it a good cleaning and it will be ready to hold some of my knife collection.
