First Claim
1. A carabiner multi-tool comprising:
- a first generally C-shaped portion, a central extended portion, and a second generally C-shaped portion, the central extended portion joining a first end of the first C-shaped portion and a first end of the second C-shaped portion into a continuous body with a second end of the first C-shaped portion and a second end of the second C-shaped portion forming a first body end and a second body end positioned in spaced apart substantially opposed relationship;
a shaft having a fixed end pivotally attached to the first body end and a free end pivotally movable into a closed orientation with the second body end and an open orientation with the second body end;
an engagement member mounted on one of the free end of the shaft and the second body end for engaging the free end of the shaft and the second body end in the closed orientation so as to lock the shaft in the closed orientation, wherein the engagement member includes an axially extending socket wrench opening mounted on the free end of the shaft for limited axial movement therealong; and
multiple tools formed in the first and the second generally C-shaped portions.

Abstract
A carabiner multi-tool includes a first generally C-shaped portion, a central extended portion, and a second generally C-shaped portion with the central extended portion joining the first and second C-shaped portions into a continuous body. Second ends of the first and the second C-shaped portions form first and second body ends positioned in spaced apart substantially opposed relationship. A shaft has one end pivotally attached to the first body end and a free end pivotally movable into a closed orientation with the second body end and an open orientation with the second body end. An engagement member is mounted on either the free end of the shaft or the second body end for engaging the free end of the shaft and the second body end in a closed orientation. Multiple tools are formed in the first and the second generally C-shaped portions.
