The results are in for Quirky’s latest product evaluation round… we’re making a portable modular utility device!
We’re planning to turn the traditional multipurpose utility knife on its head, just like the Swiss did with this ancient Roman tool, recently unveiled at the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, England.
The implement, which dates back to 200 A.D., contains a spoon, blade, fork, spatula, toothpick, and spike. Historians believe the item was specially commissioned as a useful gadget for a wealthy traveler.
Now, Quirky’s ready to take the time-tested concept of a multipurpose tool to a whole other level. By the time we’re done with this project, the Swiss Army Knife will look as dated as this ancient version. Will it be difficult? Definitely. But we’ve never been known to shy away from a challenge.
