The Hiker F.I.D.O. - Dauntless Manufacturing

Built for Everyday Carry

A dependable multi-tool performs consistently when you need it. The F.I.D.O. collection delivers multiple functions without unnecessary bulk. It fits easily in your pocket or clips securely to your belt.

The tool excels at fire starting, light prying, screw driving, scraping, and opening. It can be configured, sharpened, or unsharpened depending on the material and use case. Sharpened versions feature a 1.3" micro-blade, and unsharpened versions function as non-cutting utility tools.

F.I.D.O. Features

  • Ferro Rod Notch

    The integrated notch provides clean sparks for fire starting. It works with standard ferro rods for reliable ignition in the field.

  • Pry/Driver Tip

    The flat head screwdriver tip handles light-duty prying and driving tasks. Use it for quick fixes, package opener duties, and general utility work.

  • Bottle Opener

    An integrated bottle opener means one less tool to carry. It's positioned for easy access and solid leverage.

  • Wrench Flats

    Four integrated wrench sizes cover common hardware. Sizes include 1/2", 3/8", 1/4", and 3/16" for tool selection flexibility.

  • Sharpenable Micro-Blade

    When configured in knife steels, the 1.3" blade can be sharpened for cutting tasks. This adds pick blade functionality to the multi-tool options.

Should I choose sharpened or unsharpened?
