I found 1 of my old mans multi-tools which he used to take fishing decades ago.
I've been having a look online and the closest to it is this Mini version.

Or 1 with a axe or hammer head on it.
Anyone else remember these old school cheapo's.
I'll post a pic of the exact tool after lunch

Yes I had one, before I knew about Leatherman and Victorinox Spirits. Paid a princely sum from a local shop, thinking it was the bee's knees. Ignorance can sometimes be bliss!

The price on tools like this have thankfully come down over the years, and are now at a much more appropriate price point than pre-internet days.
 
This is my dads old M tool. made in France.

I had 1 when I was in the woods when I should of been in secondary school.
But mine did have the axe head on it and a better set of folding tools.
It's in the shed I think I know where to look, if I can beat the heat I'll have a look and post a pic of it.
Cheers

Imagine the middle 1 with an axe head / hammer on which was naff so I took it off and was left with a pretty cheap useful tool.
Non-legal as the handle opens and closes over the tools locking them.
And the red mini pliers which broke had a torch in it, madly enough you can still buy them but again a useful mini pocket tool none the less.
