Leica EDC Multitool was designed for camera tinkerers as well as seasoned outdoor enthusiasts

Multitools have a special place in an adventurer’s life, who must always be prepared for an emergency when venturing outdoors. The best preparation against the unforeseen is having a multitool in the everyday carry gear. Offering a number of simple and effective ways to tackle a range of problems when outside the house, or in the everyday routine at home, for that matter, a multitool in its portable format is a constructive option.

If you’re an enthusiast, or for the knowledge of the not-so-familiar, Victorinox and Leatherman are arguably the two most prominent names in the multitool industry. With the use of new materials and formats, many competitors and young designers are reinventing the wheel. A case in point is the Leica Multi, which is an EDC designed for the famed optics giant with impressions of its cameras reflected in the form factor.

Designer: Marco Barbosa

Over the years with its unrelenting simplicity and compactness, the Leica cameras have paved the way for all types of modern photography. Now the Leica M forms the basis for the design of a multitool that draws more than its looks from the SL2 camera. The Leica Multi has a similar machined aluminum body and is manually assembled for precision and quality.

The smallest of design features of the Marco Barbosa’s multitool reflect the Leica brand image and closely represent its analog camera details, which would allow the familiar customers to use the multitool easily due to the acquired knowledge from using Leica cameras. To keep it in line, and more productive for Leica users, the Multi is made to stick (through a housing) to the bottom of a Leica camera where the tripod does. To ensure the everyday carry gear is even more versatile to use its housing includes a spatial reading photometer that harks back to the analog days.

Talking of versatility, the Leica Multi is designed in two parts. The screwdriver, Philips screwdriver, saw, knife, scissors, corkscrew, and cap opener are located on one side, while the precision instruments like the flashlight and goldsmith’s keys are placed on the other. Opening these individual tools is easy: select the tool and rotate the handle.

When the particular tool is fully open, it locks into place so it is hassle-free to use, and pressing the shoot button unlocks the tool to retrieve it back to its residing space. All the tools have a magnetic tip and the flashlight on the Multi goes on and off with the press of the Leica logo onboard. The Leica Multi, bare bone is directed toward Leica customers, but its design and effectiveness, I presume, will leave many outdoorsy yearning!

This tiny Titanium EDC Tool performs 5 crucial tasks and fits on a keychain

I’d like to think that we’re in a golden age for Titanium (I get the irony of using the term golden to describe it but let’s not focus on that)… whether it’s dominating the EDC world or even slowly carving its way into popular culture with the latest iPhone 15 Pro. Touted as the world’s strongest metal, titanium has some significant benefits that make it such a perfect pick for tools and other EDC. It’s medical-grade, corrosion-resistant, relatively non-reactive, fairly lightweight, and is nearly impossible to damage or even make a dent on. That makes it perfect for EDC, but it also means your EDC can be smaller but still have multiple functions and features, like the TiSpanner, a scaled-down version of your hefty toolkit spanner, but with a few extra tricks up its sleeve. Aside from being the size of a car key, the TiSpanner has a built-in spanner, caliper, bottle-opener, nail-pry, and tungsten-carbide glass-breaker for emergencies. It’s the perfect blend between size and functionality, and fits right on your keychain, allowing you to carry it wherever you go.

The TiSpanner is a uniquely versatile tool with a built-in precision spanner that can open/close nuts and bolts, while also functioning as a caliper tool for measuring. A rotating knob lets you make micro-adjustments to the TiSpanner’s jaws, while its meticulously machined threading ensures the kind of accuracy a pair of calipers would demand. Etched markings on the side of the TiSpanner let you calculate linear measurements, while the adjustable metal jaws themselves expand to fit hex nuts or bolts as large as M10 on the nominal scale.

Look around a bit further and you spot a few extra details that bring more value to the TiSpanner. For starters, a notch in its outer jaw, coupled with the TiSpanner’s general shape, makes it a perfect nail-pry, while a groove in the inner jaw allows the TiSpanner to function as a bottle opener. The linear design of the spanner lends itself well to both those uses, as it turns into a class 3 lever for opening bottles, and a class 2 lever for pulling/prying nails. Finally, the TiSpanner ends with quite a tactical flair, boasting a glass-breaker tip on its reverse end. Designed to be held in between your fingers with the glass-breaker pointing outwards, the TiSpanner can easily shatter even laminated panes of glass like the ones found in cars, allowing for a quick and effortless exit in an emergency.

Each TiSpanner comes meticulously machined from individual pieces of titanium, giving it incredible strength and a fairly long lifespan (I assume a couple of generations at the least). The spanner is small enough to be carried everywhere, measuring merely 2.2 inches when closed. Given its tiny size, it comes with a few slots to put in vials of tritium that help you spot your EDC in the dark, or better yet, just string your TiSpanner around a keychain and you’ll always have your multitool right at your fingertips! The TiSpanner starts at $68 USD and begins shipping in January 2024.

This 5-in-1 Titanium Carabiner Multitool is the Perfect Travel EDC Companion

Your keychain can hold keys, and it can probably open bottles… but can it fix your bicycle? Can it transform into a screwdriver? Can it turn into a box-cutter or self-defense tool? Designed for the outdoor enthusiast who always loves having the right tool on them for the right task, the KeySnap is a rather cleverly designed 5-in-1 carabiner. Crafted out of Grade-5 Titanium (the strongest metal known to mankind), the KeySnap is a pretty brutishly built carabiner keychain that doubles as a multitool. The carabiner’s unique one-piece design allows it to easily attach onto belt loops, backpack straps, and other hooking points, while the KeySnap’s base features a tiny removable blade with a semi-sharp edge that’s perfect for cutting paper, drops, and opening boxes. Look around the KeySnap and you’ll also notice its hex-wrench that also works as a bit holder for a screwdriver, a spoke wrench that’s perfect for fixing bicycles, and a bottle opener that lets you crack open a brewski outdoors.

Carabiners are pretty much a standard fixture in the EDC world and you’ll probably find your fair share of ones with multitools built into them, but the KeySnap is different in two key ways – A. The fact that it’s made entirely from grade-5 titanium, which makes it much more durable than any steel alloy carabiner on the market. and finally B. the integration of a removable blade into the base of the carabiner, allowing you to quickly detach it when you need to, and clip it back in place once you’re done.

The first thing you notice with the KeySnap’s design is the carabiner detail. Unlike most carabiners that come with a spring-loaded arm, the KeySnap just uses a clever series of cuts that allows the titanium to bend as if it were spring-loaded. Given how incredibly resilient titanium is, the arm can flex a great deal without breaking or withstanding any sort of damage. Titanium’s shape-memory nature gives the arm its springiness, allowing it to return securely to its original position.

The KeySnap’s defining feature (and something that sets it apart from the competition) is that detachable miniature blade. Designed to sit securely inside the carabiner until you press the buttons on each side, the blade can easily be removed for cutting and emergency use. It has a rather tiny spear-point edge, so if you want something more tactical you best go for a full-fledged knife. However, for everything else, it’s a perfect blade to have on hand. The spear-point tip is ideal for cutting through envelopes and boxes, while the edge itself is semi-sharp, so you’re really in no danger of slicing skin and hurting yourself.

When you’re not slicing away at boxes and plastic packets, the KeySnap has a few other tools that can prove to be incredibly handy. A hex wrench lets you work screws and bolts, but also allows you to dock a standard hex-bit and turn your carabiner into a makeshift screwdriver. Right beside the hex wrench is a spoke wrench, perfect for fixing spokes in a bicycle, and to the extreme end sits a bottle opener, a common yet much-appreciated fixture of any good multitool… after all, all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy, doesn’t it?!

All the features fit into the carabiner’s rather compact frame, making it a perfect EDC for your outdoor travels. The KeySnap clocks in at 3.11 inches long, 1.38 inches wide, and weighs a mere 1.3 ounces (37 grams). It’s designed to practically last a lifetime (thanks to the Grade 5 Titanium build), and even with the blade, the KeySnap fully complies with TSA hand tool carry-on regulations. Perfect for carrying any and everywhere, the KeySnap transforms the humble carabiner keychain into an EDC that packs a few interesting features that you’ll be happy to have on you at all times. The KeySnap starts at a discounted $49, and ships worldwide for free starting January 2024.

Tiny 14-in-1 Titanium Key Multitool Is More Versatile Than A Swiss Army Knife

Most keys open locks… The KeyMaster opens endless possibilities.

Named after its key-shaped design, this hyper-versatile multitool sits on your keychain and can do everything from open a bottle to fix a bicycle. Made from titanium, the KeyMaster is a durable little monster-multitool that fits every conceivable tool into its unique design. It comes machined from Grade 5 Titanium, weighs a paltry 29 grams (1 ounce), and is durable enough to last multiple lifetimes.

Designer: EDC Monster

Portable multitools are a dime a dozen, but none quite as well-designed as the KeyMaster. Its literal key-shaped design comes with a world of potential, and strings around your keychain or even around your neck like an ornament with a dog-tag-like appeal. A testament to how much usability you can actually cram into the shape and size of a key, the KeyMaster comes with 14 different types of tools that get you out of all kinds of fixes, whether it’s in the outdoors, at home, or in your garage.

The KeyMaster is a hyper-versatile, durable, compact, and lightweight multitool that easily replaces any other EDC you have.

Its two-part design, locked together by a hollow swiveling joint, touts as many as 14 different types of tools

Any multitool worth its salt needs to have a few standard tools, and the KeyMaster comfortably ticks those boxes. The titanium multitool comes with a nifty scalpel-holder built into its design that lets you mount any standard scalpel blade to it for effective cutting, piercing, whittling, slicing, and scraping. The scalpel blade folds into the KeyMaster’s design when not in use and folds out when you need a small yet effective knife. Moreover, the readily-available scalpel blade can easily be switched out for a new one after it gets dull, extending the KeyMaster’s overall longevity without worrying about sharpening blades. Want to cut through something a little more tough? The KeyMaster also packs a serrated edge for objects that require a little more elbow grease, allowing you to finely saw away at twigs and branches. The serrated edge also works remarkably well for scraping flint to start fires outdoors.

Multitools are also somewhat incomplete without bottle-openers and pry-bars, which is why it comes as no surprise that the KeyMaster has them too. The bottle opener brings a more everyday convenience to the KeyMaster, and the prybar also doubles as a box opener and a flat-head screwdriver. For smaller screws, the KeyMaster packs two more smaller flathead screwdrivers into its sizes, along with two small Philips-head drivers for good measure.

The KeyMaster’s swiveling design is the ‘key’ to its versatility. The two-part form factor allows it to integrate more tools and functionality into it, borrowing a page from the Swiss Army Knife. Quite like its inspiration, the KeyMaster also comes with a miniature scale of its own, with both metric as well as imperial measurements. Right below the imperial ruler is also another serrated surface that does the job of a file, helping you sand or file away at rough surfaces or remove unwanted burrs/irregularities.

Things get interesting with the KeyMaster’s built-in hex and spoke wrenches. Going above and beyond what your standard multitool gives you, the KeyMaster’s integrated wrench profiles help you assemble, disassemble, and repair objects around you. The hex wrenches come in 5 different sizes, and even let you mount S2 hex bits, working as a screwdriver. The spoke wrenches, on the other hand, are exceedingly useful for people with bicycles or motorcycles, allowing them to quickly tinker with and repair their vehicles in a moment of crisis. The hollow part of the KeyMaster’s swivel hinge also doubles as a wire bender, giving you a high-torque tool that lets you easily bend wires and narrow pipes.

Despite all its capabilities, the KeyMaster weighs just an ounce, thanks to some great design and engineering. Its compact form factor definitely wins my heart, coupled with a titanium build that’s not just extremely durable, but also waterproof, scratchproof, and corrosion-resistant. Measuring just 112mm long (4.4 inches) and 35mm across (1.3 inches), the KeyMaster ranks as one of the smaller multitools we’ve seen and can be carried in a multitude of ways. Moreover, ditch the scalpel blade and the thing is TSA-friendly too, meaning you can even carry it on flights. The KeyMaster comes with a sandblasted titanium finish, and starts at an extremely affordable $59, with free global shipping.

Incredibly Handy 6-in-1 Multitool Has A Built-In Adjustable Wrench And Fits In Your Pocket

A purpose-built multitool that’s perfect to stash in your backpack, your car, bicycle kit, workshed, or even your pocket, the OUTU 6-in-1 multitool gives you all the tinkering tools you need to open, assemble, or repair anything around you. The handy multitool occupies about the same space as a large USB stick when closed (measuring just 4.5 inches long), but open it out and you’ve got yourself an adjustable wrench, prybar, bottle opener, knife, Philips-head screwdriver, and a sleeve for attaching S2 hex bits to your multitool to work with a wide range of screws.

Covering practically every day-to-day scenario where you’d need a multitool, the OUTU 6-in-1 Multitool EDC is compact enough to be hyper-portable, useful enough to get the job done, and then even lets you crack open a bottle of brewski after a hard day of work!

Click Here to Buy Now

The multitool comes in different accented color options, giving you the ability to choose between vibrant orange, red, blue, or a classic black. The EDC sports a foldable design reminiscent of the pocket knives we’ve been seeing for over a century, however, it also fashions itself with a select set of tools that are much more necessary in the modern age. A blade gets you through rough situations where you need to slice ropes, whittle wood, or cut open boxes, while the adjustable wrench lets you tinker and toy around with everything from furniture to bicycles to potentially even your car. The prybar doubles as a flathead screwdriver, and there’s a dedicated Philips-head screwdriver too, but combined, they let you dock a mounting sleeve to install S2 hex bits. This, in my opinion, is uniquely game-changing.

The adjustable wrench (or pliers if you tend to use that terminology) helps easily tighten or loosen bolts. The wrench jaws open to an impressive 24mm and are built at an angle, providing up to 65 kilograms of torque to let you twist open or twist to tighten even the toughest bolts or nuts.

The OUTU 6-in-1 Multitool also comes with its own set of hex-bits, and a mounting sleeve that lets you attach them to the multitool. The bit sleeve (shown in the image above) mounts on the flathead and Philips head screwdrivers when opened. Both of them open to form a square-shaped profile that fits the sleeve perfectly, while its other end lets you magnetically mount any of the 9 hex bits that come with the OUTU.

Whether you’re looking for a handy multitool to fix stuff around the house, or an EDC to carry around while bicycling (just in case your ride needs fixing), or even if you want to add a nice tool to your workshop arsenal, the OUTU 6-in-1 Multitool makes for a rather compelling (and affordable) purchase!

This compact multitool fits on your keychain to help you get stuff done no time flat

Life’s problems may sometimes seem complex, but sometimes, all it takes is the right tool for the right job to solve them. Unfortunately, most of us are caught unprepared to face these tasks, forcing us to fumble in our bags or pockets only to realize that we don’t have the correct tool at hand. After all, it’s nearly impossible to bring with you all the tools you could possibly need wherever you go, especially for those of us who have embraced minimalist lifestyles and compact everyday carries or EDCs. Fortunately, our world is also filled with ingenious and creative people who have come face-to-face with that same feeling of helplessness, people who designed this small wonder of a multitool that can solve more than 10 daily problems but is still small enough to actually fit into the pocket of your slimmest jeans.

Ever found yourself at a loss when trying to open a package with no box cutter in sight? Or how about dying to drink that ice-cold drink but don’t have anything to open the bottle with? Every one of us has experienced the desire to have as many life-essential tools within our reach as possible, but no one wants to carry a toolbox with them everywhere. Even the so-called multitools are bulky and are sometimes even disallowed in some places, and they can’t even handle some of the basic needs we have to complete the task at hand.

The Lever Gear Edge XT was made precisely to solve this problem, providing an indispensable tool that you can keep in your pocket or even your keychain so that you’ll never be caught unprepared ever again. Despite its small size, this talented product provides 10 tools in one compact body. That includes a retractable utility blade, a quick box opener, a Phillips screwdriver, a bottle opener, a wire stripper, a flathead screwdriver, a prybar, a metric ruler, an inch ruler, and a hex bit holder. That pretty much covers every task you’ll ever face, from opening packages, cutting craft paper, fixing furniture, or popping a cold drink after a hard day’s work.

Quick and safe utility blade.

Changing blades is easy.

The Edge XT’s appeal doesn’t just come from its utility but also from its meticulous attention to detail. That blade, for example, is just a standard #11 craft blade, so you can easily remove and replace it as needed, especially to get through security checkpoints. And while that blade is super-easy to deploy and retract with just your thumb, a safety lock makes sure it stays safely in place and keeps you and your bag’s contents out of harm’s way.

With a durable 420HC stainless steel body, the Edge XT is also designed to last. Even the blade slider and lock are made from glass-reinforced nylon polymer to help them survive repeated use. And with a silver or black satin finish, the tool will look handsome in your hand or dangling from your keychain or bag. For a limited time, you can get the Edge XT for just $29 through the early bird special on Kickstarter. The Lever Gear Edge XT gives you a multi-functional workhorse to face life’s unexpected problems quickly, skillfully, and in style.

The Only Tactical Multi-Tool You’ll Ever Need: This Titanium Pocket Knife + Glass-Breaker Conquers All

Small enough to fit on your keychain, this tactical tool can get you out of a variety of hot messes. The Bladeclip features an all-titanium handle, with a quick-deploy interchangeable blade that always has you ready for any indoor or outdoor cutting action. Machined into the titanium handle is also a unibody carabiner clip with clever design detailing, a bottle opener, a keychain ring, and a window breaker that covers quite a few responsibilities of a good multitool. To make things even more impressive, the Bladeclip measures a mere 3.2 inches (81mm) when closed, weighs just a little over 2 ounces (61 grams), and comes machined out of Grade 5 Titanium, giving you a multitool that’ll outlive you by a couple of decades without even showing signs of wear and tear.

Designer: 3 Peters

The Bladeclip is a good multitool that’s been executed brilliantly. Pocket blades with built-in bottle openers are a dime a dozen, but the Bladeclip’s design direction shows a clever appreciation of detailing, material choices, and even user experience all along. Every part of the Bladeclip feels well-made, and every corner of it is executed flawlessly. For starters, the entire body of the Bladeclip comes machined from Grade 5 Titanium, giving it incredible durability while allowing it to be pretty lightweight. Its clever design reduces the number of moving parts too, so that your blade has fewer points of failure.

Activated by a clever flipper with a roller bearing, the BladeClip comes with a replaceable No.18 scalpel-style blade that you can either replace whenever needed, or swap out for any other standard scalpel blade. Made from surgical-grade steel, the blade offers high strength and anti-corrosion properties, while boasting of a blade sharp enough to whittle away at wood, slice paracord, or even through a seatbelt. The blade gets deployed with a simple flick of your thumb and stays open thanks to a liner lock mechanism. When the blade runs dull, instead of sharpening it, you can simply ditch it for a new blade, keeping your BladeClip going even when the going gets tough.

The side profile of the BladeClip gives you a brief overview of its other functions, including a bottle opener that lets you effortlessly crack open a brewski in the hot outdoors (or even indoors), and that brilliantly designed carabiner mechanism that’s machined right into the titanium itself. Right under the carabiner sits a window-breaker that lets you make a quick exit from a building or a car, or break into an emergency box to retrieve a first aid kit or fire extinguisher in a crisis.

The BladeClip’s carabiner quick-release clip has my heart for its ingenious design. Rather than building a spring-loaded arm into the carabiner, the BladeClip’s handle comes with a series of machined cuts that allow for the titanium to flex ever so gently, functioning as a spring-loaded arm that bends under pressure, but then shuts back with a satisfying click. The lack of a mini spring and of a separate arm makes the carabiner much more efficient from a manufacturing perspective, and also helps the BladeClip last longer and resist breakage. I won’t be surprised if this also becomes a nice fidget interaction that you’ll find yourself constantly playing with.

The genius series of cuts allows the BladeClip’s titanium arm to be flexible

The quick-release carabiner clip’s design also makes carrying the BladeClip really easy. While most pocket knives come with a dedicated pocket clip to help securely carry your EDC with you, the BladeClip ditches that for the versatile carabiner detail that straps to your belt, belt loop, or even your pocket. Couple that with its built-in keychain and you’ve got yourself a winning EDC on your hands… or in your pocket!

A look at the BladeClip’s flipper mechanism while deploying the blade

The BladeClip comes with ten standard No. 18 surgical blades, although it supports a variety of other blades too, from No. 19 to No. 26 scalpel blades. The blades are strong, sharp, and cheap, allowing you to easily replace them periodically. As far as replaceable add-ons go, there’s even space for a tiny tritium slot on the BladeClip’s body, although that’s available separately.

Each BladeClip sports a stone-washed finish and starts at $89, and for an extra $15, you can either have your BladeClip anodized with a matte black finish or get your name custom engraved on the handle, turning it into a true heirloom item that you can pass down to your great grand-children… Given its rugged titanium build, it’ll probably still look as good as new.
