Claim:
1. A ratcheting multi-tool comprising: a first armature and a second armature; wherein the first armature includes a ratcheting tool thereon; wherein the first armature and the second armature are pivotably engaged to form a set of pliers; wherein the second armature includes a knife; wherein the second armature includes a pair of scissors that is pivotably engaged; wherein the first armature pivots with respect to a first pivot point; whereas the second armature pivots with respect to a second pivot point; wherein a first pliers member is pivotably engaged to the first pivot point; wherein a second pliers member is pivotably engaged to the second pivot point; wherein the first plier member is pivotably engaged with respect to the second plier member via a third pivot point; wherein the first and second pliers members, pivot in order to provide the plier tool, which is articulated via the first armature and the second armature pivoting with respect to the first pivot point and second pivot point, respectively; wherein the first armature and the second armature are generally parallel with one another; wherein the first armature is further defined with a first distal end that is pivotably engaged to the ratcheting tool; wherein the ratcheting tool is generally parallel with the first armature; wherein the ratcheting tool is able to rotate with respect to the first distal end; wherein the ratcheting tool is able to fold against an inner armature surface of the first armature; wherein the ratcheting tool includes a ratchet member adjacent to a ratcheting tool distal end; wherein the ratchet member is configured to tighten or loosen a hexagonally-shaped fastener; wherein the ratchet member is open in design such that the hexagonally-shaped fastener is able to extend there through when in use; wherein the ratcheting tool is attached to and rotates with respect to the first distal end of the first armature via a fourth pivot point; wherein the first armature is further defined with a belt clip that is affixed to the first pivot point; wherein the belt clip is generally parallel with the inner armature surface of the first armature; wherein the belt clip is adapted to secure the ratcheting multi-tool against a belt; wherein the first armature is further defined with a spring-loaded clip that is integrated into the design of the first armature; wherein the first armature is further defined with a first lateral side surface, which is adjacent to the inner armature surface; wherein the first lateral side surface includes the spring-loaded clip thereon; wherein the spring-loaded clip is further defined with a clip recess that is accessible from the first lateral side surface; wherein the spring-loaded clip enables an object to be inserted into the clip recess and secured thereto via the spring-loaded clip.
