The GEO multi-tool replaces the conventional folding layout with a patent-pending rotating disc mechanism that cycles through five integrated tools using a single access opening. Outer index levers rotate the internal assembly until the selected tool aligns with the opening, while a sliding lock secures it during use. The one-handed mechanism includes a blade, scraper, box opener, flathead screwdriver, bottle opener, and string cutter, along with a dedicated safety position that conceals all cutting edges when stored.
The circular body measures 53.5mm in diameter and 8.7mm thick, increasing to less than 15mm with the integrated belt clip for pocket or bag carry. The tool body is machined from 440C stainless steel hardened to 57–59 HRC, while the cover panels are available in CNC-machined 6061-T6 aluminum or Grade 5 titanium. Internal hardware uses 304 stainless steel throughout. GEO is available through Invento Design with launch pricing starting at $45.
