19th Century Solingen-made 'multi-tool' knife, created for the John S. Holler Company, leaves nothing out...... having even a 5-shot 22Calibur Revolver.....

Weighing in at 9 pounds....hardly a 'pocket knife'......It features a serrated blade, two dagger blades, several different types of shears and scissors, an auger, a corkscrew, two saws, a lancet, button hook, cigar cutter, tuning fork, pens and mechanical pencils, mirror, straight razor, and a functional.22-caliber five-shot pinfire revolver. The one modern convenience it doesn’t seem to have is a bottle opener, but the bottle cap as we know it wasn’t invented until 1892.
