Abstract
A tool includes a handle and a blade. The handle extends from a handle first end to a handle second end. The blade has a first surface and an opposed second surface and defines a cutting edge between the first surface and the second surface. The blade extends from a blade first end to a blade second end. The blade and the handle are rotatably coupled at the blade first end and the handle first end about an axis extending from the first surface of the blade to the second surface of the blade. The blade is rotatable from a first position to a second position. The blade is lockable in the first position. When in the first position, the blade extends out from the handle second end.
Claims19
A tool, comprising:
- a handle extending from a handle first end to a handle second end;
- and
- a blade having a first surface and an opposed second surface and defining a cutting edge between the first surface and the second surface, the blade extending from a blade first end to a blade second end;
- wherein the blade and the handle are rotatably coupled at the blade first end and the handle first end about an axis extending from the first surface of the blade to the second surface of the blade;
- wherein the blade is rotatable from a first position to a second position;
- wherein the blade is lockable in the first position;
- and
- wherein, when in the first position, the blade extends out from the handle second end.
The tool of claim 7, wherein the blade includes a face configured to be used as a hammer head extending between the first surface and the second surface at the termination of the concave portion of the cutting edge, and wherein the face defines a groove configured to retain a saw blade.
A system, comprising:
- a tool, comprising:
- a handle extending from a handle first end to a handle second end;
- and
- a blade having a first surface and an opposed second surface and defining a cutting edge between the first surface and the second surface, the blade extending from a blade first end to a blade second end;
- wherein the blade and the handle are rotatably coupled at the blade first end and the handle first end about an axis extending from the first surface to the second surface of the blade;
- wherein the blade is rotatable from a first position to a second position;
- a saw blade extending from a first end to a second end;
- and
- a sheath configured to receive a portion of the blade, wherein the sheath defines a groove;
- wherein, when the blade is in the second position, the handle is configured to engage the first end of the saw blade and the groove of the sheath is configured to receive the second end of the saw blade.
A system, comprising:
- a device, comprising:
- a first component extending from a first end to a second end;
- a second component extending from a first end to a second end;
- a pin coupled to the first component adjacent to the second end of the first component;
- wherein the first component and the second component are rotatably coupled at the respective first ends of the first and second components;
- wherein the second component is rotatable from a first position to a second position;
- and
- wherein, when the second component is in the second position, the pin is configured to retain a first end of a saw blade.
