  The use of Lax pair tensors as a unifying framework for Killing tensors of
arbitrary rank is discussed. Some properties of the tensorial Lax pair
formulation are stated. A mechanical system with a well-known Lax
representation -- the three-particle open Toda lattice -- is geometrized by a
suitable canonical transformation. In this way the Toda lattice is realized as
the geodesic system of a certain Riemannian geometry. By using different
canonical transformations we obtain two inequivalent geometries which both
represent the original system. Adding a timelike dimension gives
four-dimensional spacetimes which admit two Killing vector fields and are
completely integrable.
