ABSTRACT:
A device that adapts a wide range of appliances such as drills, awls, screwdrivers and sockets to use with a multifinctional pocket tool such as a pocket knife or other folding tool. The device firmly attaches the appliances to the multifunctional pocket tool so that the user can pull on the appliance in addition to pushing and turning. The adapter clamps firmly to flat blade such as a screwdriver blade by clamping to the blade with a screw and by forcing the sides of the adapter against the broad sides of the blade as well. The appliance is firmly retained by having a rigid thin rod or ball slide into the cavity in which the appliance is held to block its removal. The rigid thin rod or ball is easily moved out of the way to allow removal of the appliance.
