Abstract:
A multi-purpose golfer's tool comprising:a) a generally planar ball-mark repair blade including a hinge and first central opening sized to receive the end of a cigar; b) a lever arm having first and second ends, the first end being pivotally attached to the ball-mark repair blade at the hinge for movement between a first position generally overlying the blade member and a second position in general axial alignment with the ball-mark repair blade, the lever arm having a protruding boss on one side thereof spaced from the first end and sized to protrude through the central opening of the ball-mark repair blade when the lever arm is in the first position; c) a housing defining a track for receiving the ball-mark repair blade and for permitting sliding motion of the ball-mark repair blade with respect to the housing to selectively extend and retract the ball-mark repair blade therefrom when the lever arm is in the second position, the housing including a second central opening there through sized to receive the end of a cigar and for receiving the protruding boss of the lever arm when the lever arm is in the first position; and d) a cutting blade including a cutting edge integral with the ball-mark repair blade, the cutting edge extending obliquely with respect to the first central opening so that as the ball-mark repair blade moves from its retracted position to its extended position, the cutting edge of the cutting blade moves cross the second central opening in the housing.
