Get-A-Way Driver PR
PRESS RELEASE For immediate release. Contacts: Rod Bremer, Lindsey Phelps, 1-800-891-3100 or 503-685-5015 Fax: 503-682-9680 E-mail: info@crkt.com Tualatin, Oregon, U.S.A.— January 19, 2010 Yes, Inspired Design works.® The award-winning Get-A-Way® Driver— a carabiner screwdriver, bit carrier and L.E.D. flashlight— is also available as a Torx® bit driver. Here at Columbia River Knife & Tool® (CRKT®) we’re inspired by great design. Our I.D. Works® products are not tools you will find anywhere else. We’re motivated by design that is both inspired and functional, as created 500 years ago by painter, sculptor, architect, and inventor Leonardo da Vinci, who said “observe everything” in nature. We’ve partnered with the best and brightest designers of today who share this vision of putting functional art in your hand. They are organic and ergonomic shapes, sometimes whimsical, alway useful. These unique tools make up our growing I.D. Works® line. Put them to use, enjoy them, and always remember what inspires you! Our patent-pending* Get-A-Way™ Driver models are another creative design by Launce Barber and Tom Stokes which is designed to be an integral part of our I.D. Works® tool system. One indication of their innovative design is that the Get-A-Way Driver was named 2008 Accessory Of The Year at the Blade Show in Atlanta, Georgia. The Model 9094 itself is a screwdriver; flat and Phillips hex bit carrier with four standard hex bits, two flat and two Phillips; a specialty wrench; bottle opener; and L.E.D. flashlight with carry carabiner. The Get-A-Way Driver Torx® Model 9095 contains T5, T6, T8, T10 Torx hex bits. In addition to being a useful high-tech tool, the 9095 makes an ideal CRKT knife maintenance tool. Launce and Tom have designed this multi-tool to be as compact and lightweight as possible. Handle length is only 3.75”, and weight is only 1.9 ounces. It is the perfect small screwdriver. Not only can it be rotated like a conventional screwdriver, but the bit driver can be removed and placed in a hex relief in the handle, where it becomes an angle driver when more torque is needed. The four hex bits each have a spring-loaded ball to retain them in the handle securely, and also have a thin groove so that they can be easily pressed out of the handle and removed with a fingernail. On the opposite end of the handle is a powerful L.E.D. flashlight with a press-on, press-off switch button. 1 The underside of the handle is a mirror-polished stainless steel frame with wrench reliefs for hex bits, 10 mm nuts and standard oxygen bottle valves. It also has a stainless steel bottle and jar opener attached. A stainless steel carry carabiner allows the Get-A-Way Driver to be attached to belt loops, webbing, packs, or work equipment. It also allows the Get-A-Way Driver to perform as part of the I.D. Works® tool system, attached to the Zilla-Tool Jr. or Li’l Guppie, giving both of these tools additional screwdriver/wrench/flashlight capabilities. Yes, it’s an unassuming little accessory tool. But study the Get-A-Way Driver and you realize how carefully thought-out it is, and also what a value both models are with MSRPs of only $19.99. The Get-A-Way Driver is available in retail clampacks as the 9094C and 9095C. *Patents pending.
