NEW HAVEN, Connecticut – November 2, 2017 – In a market flooded with multitools and pocket gizmos, standing out from the crowd is no easy feat, especially on Kickstarter. With a unique shape and carry options, Covert Products Group’s new B.A.T. TRIDENT multitool moves the conversation of EDC tools in a totally new direction.
Inspired by the familiar silhouette of side-release buckles (as found on backpacks and bags), the B.A.T. TRIDENT expands on CPG’s “bring anywhere tool” concept that debuted on Kickstarter last year. The TRIDENT – which launched this week on Kickstarter – is engineered to contain 12+ useful functions in a compact, ergonomic and highly “carry-able” package. From daily utility to survival, the TRIDENT is designed to be carried (almost) anywhere, excel at a variety of tasks, and look good doing it.
“The perfect tool isn’t so perfect if you don’t have it with you,” explains the TRIDENT’s designer Thom O’Leary. “The TRIDENT is big enough to be useful, but small enough to carry just about anywhere, either visibly or covertly. Slip it onto a backpack strap, belt, keychain, or carry it in your pocket.”
The TRIDENT functions include:
· Phillips head screwdriver
· Razor edge
· Sharp piercing point
· Captured cutter
· Flat head screwdriver/pry tip
· Wire stripper
· Serrated fire rod scraper
· Saw edge
· Laser-etched 1” ruler
· Ergonomic bottle opener operated with the tool safely held in the sheath
· Fire starter rod (included) OR swap it out for an optional EmbriteTM glow pellet from TEC Accessories
· 3M SOLAS reflective sticker
· And the TRIDENT’s molded Kydex Sheath is designed to allow multiple attachment options for everyday carry
The TRIDENT is available now through December 1st on Kickstarter, with lowest prices available for early adopters. The TRIDENT will ship during or before March 2018.

Thought it was a belt buckle for a second, that would help out even more (but mess up the sharp edge most likely)
