CRKT Gekkota Pocket by Barber & Stokes

Most of our readers will know that Gekkota is an infraorder in the suborder Scleroglossa, comprising all geckos. But what the heck is the CRKT Gekkota^™? Well, it's a useful little product designed by Launce Barber and Tom Stokes.

Gekkota^™ Pocket. At first glance, this looks like a brooch with a gecko design on the green anodized 6061 aluminum face.

But what's this? Push one of the little flipper tabs, and out pops a 1.375" long spear point blade with a CRKT script laser cut in it. It is firmly held open by the frame lock cut into the Gekkota stainless steel back panel.

Push the other tab, and you have a tool that is both a blade screwdriver and a bottle opener, handy when you need to open your favorite soda or microbrew.

Then you look more carefully, and find the stainless steel clip on the back, which can be a pocket clip, or a money clip. And there's a folding loop that allows the Gekkota to be carried on a neck chain or by a small carabiner.

Weighing only 1.8 ounces, this is a lightweight tool that has hundreds of daily uses.

This cute little Gekkota modes makes an affordable and unusual gift or premium for men and women.
