Multi-function tools

Everyone likes to tinker with a good tool!

The concept of a multi-tool dates back to the days of the Roman Empire, when troops were regularly mobilized for long journeys across Western Europe, the Persian Gulf and North Africa. To maintain the most powerful army of the time, it was necessary to have superior weapons in order to strike fear into the hearts of its enemies. Indeed, it was the pinnacle of progress in the use of metals to make and mass produce swords, spears (or javelins), daggers, and even knives that could be concealed in a soldier's pocket.

However, long campaigns were less about engaging in daily skirmishes with the enemy and more about going on long hikes, living in an unfamiliar wilderness, and camping every night. Around 200 to 300 AD, the first multi-tool was made of iron and silver.

The Roman multi-tool was indeed an everyday tool, not a weapon intended to be used for aggression or defense. The tool included a knife blade, similar to the small blade of today's penknife, a point, a toothpick, a spatula, and a fork with a spoon on the opposite end. A great example of an 1800 year old tool that is now an integral part of most multi-tools on the market today.
