The 6-in-1 functionality is where the magic happens. This tool seamlessly integrates an adjustable wrench, a pry bar/nail puller, a screwdriver bit holder, a ratchet mechanism, a bottle opener, and a window breaker into one compact design. Each feature is meticulously engineered to ensure you have the right tool for the job, no matter where you are. Its intuitive design allows you to switch between functions with ease, making it the perfect gadget for those who value efficiency and versatility.

A wrench is often considered an “Omnipotent Little Helper,” and this 6-in-1 multi-tool makes sure one is available to you all the time to meet any need. The rows of grooves at the opening of the wrench are like precision teeth that ensure a tight bite on any nut or bolt. A simple flick of the strategically placed roller opens or closes the wrench and can even be a stress-relieving fidget toy that’s always within reach.

The center of the tool is home to four side-by-side screwdriver heads, held firmly down using strong magnets. Easily pop one into the ratchet mechanism and you instantly have the perfect precision tool for furniture assembly or gadget repairs. Thanks to its innovative design, the ratchet mechanism allows for easy actuation and constant tightening force, saving you time and effort on those emergency tasks.

Need some down time after a hard day’s work? The pry bar and bottle opener makes short work of cans and bottles, allowing you to enjoy that much-needed refreshment. The wrench end of the tool has a handy window breaker made of tungsten steel, while the V-shaped pry bar is also useful for pulling out stubborn nails. All of these essential features are crammed in a compact size that ensures it fits comfortably in your pocket or on a keychain, so it’s always within reach.

The design of this multi-tool is not only functional but also aesthetically pleasing. Five slots for tritium tubes add a bit of personal style while also making it easy to locate and use the tool in the dark. Its sleek look is complemented by the natural sheen of titanium, making it a stylish addition to your gear collection. The tool utilizes the CNC machining process to ensure not only manufacturing accuracy but also maintaining product quality. It’s the perfect blend of form and function, offering a tool that is as beautiful as it is practical.

Imagine the confidence of knowing you’re equipped for any situation, whether you’re hiking, cycling, or simply running errands. Designed for the modern explorer who values preparedness and style, this multi-functional pry bar/wrench is more than just a tool; it’s a statement of readiness and resilience. The Titanium EDC 6-in-1 Multi-Tool is a must-have for anyone who loves the outdoors, enjoys DIY projects, or simply wants to be prepared for life’s little challenges.

Titanium 10-in-1 EDC Tool PryMax 2.0 Packs a Ratchet Screwdriver, Wrench, and Survival Gear

Posted on by

There’s something uniquely satisfying about a tool that manages to condense an entire toolbox into a single, beautifully crafted object. The PryMax 2.0 from EDC MONSTER does exactly that, and yet, it’s more than just a multi-function gadget—it’s a design refined through time, blending technical innovation with understated elegance. The PryMax 2.0 comes from the folks at EDC MONSTER, who saw a great deal of success with the first-generation PryBar from 2023. Over the past year, the team’s worked towards refining the design, building not just on their own personal experience with the device but also on consumer feedback from the nearly 900 people who bought the EDC multitool. Retaining the Grade 5 titanium construction, this redesigned tool combines toughness with a refined sense of minimalism, measuring just 13.7 cm (5.4 inches) and weighing 95 grams (3.3 ounces). It’s not trying to impress with bulk; instead, it’s a masterclass in efficiency and restraint, ready to handle everything from everyday tasks to unexpected challenges.

Within its compact frame (which is a hallmark of its design) lie 10 features, ranging from general to specific tools. The prybar gets first mention (thanks to the tool’s name), following the CNC-machined wrench that also doubles as a bottle-opener and a caliper. The caliper’s measurements are courtesy a set of etched markings on the side, which can also be used to measure items normally like a regular scale. Other features include a ratchet screwdriver, regular bit driver, everlasting pen, emergency glass breaker, and other non-essential EDC details like a pocket clip and tritium-slots.

Tucked into this sleek titanium body is an adjustable wrench that takes versatility to another level. Need to tighten a loose bolt on your bike or a leaky faucet? The PryMax 2.0’s wrench is ready to adapt. It handles a wide range of nut sizes with a smooth adjustment mechanism that feels far more robust than you’d expect from something this compact. And when precision is key, the integrated caliper comes into play, offering quick, on-the-go measurements. No need to lug around bulky measuring tools—this one stays quietly at your side, ready when you are. These features don’t scream for attention; they simply work, making your day just that bit easier.

The dual-direction ratchet screwdriver integrated into the PryMax 2.0 is designed for serious work. Unlike the typical multi-tool, where screwdrivers are often an afterthought, this one delivers precision and ease. The magnetic bit driver, which comes pre-installed with two S2 alloy steel bits, allows for quick changes and ensures a smooth, frustration-free experience—no more fumbling with tiny parts. For tighter spaces, the fixed-position bit holder steps in, offering a controlled grip when the situation calls for more delicate maneuvering. It’s not just a screwdriver; it’s the tool you didn’t know you needed.

At the tip of the PryMax 2.0 lies its most prominent feature (and where it gets its name from too), the prybar. The wedge-shaped prying tool, combined with the EDC’s titanium construction, is perfect for prying out nails, shimmying open lids, and even cutting through boxes. The blunt edge tucks perfectly into crevasses, and the titanium body takes on pretty much any sort of stress, allowing you to wedge open even the tightest of lids or the rustiest of screws. The box-opener feature is neat too, because it’s just sharp enough to cut tape without posing a safety threat to humans.

With practical, the PryMax 2.0 packs tactical features too – in the form of a strategically placed glass-breaker that can shatter even reinforced/laminated glass with a single strike. Compact but powerful, this feature is designed to break through glass with minimal effort, potentially saving your life in an emergency if you’re trapped in a vehicle or in another critical situation. These are the kinds of details that don’t just make the PryMax 2.0 a tool for tinkering—they make it a tool for everyday survival.

While functionality is clearly at the core of this tool, there’s a certain pleasure in the quieter, more thoughtful additions. The everlasting pen, for instance, tucks neatly along the side, always there when you need to jot something down. It’s not just any pen, either—it writes on nearly any surface, wet or dry, and never runs out of ink. Designed using a special alloy that mimics the effect of pencil on paper, this everlasting pen can write for years without needing sharpening or generating waste – that offsets the 8 million trees cut each year to make pencils. Pair that with the ruler etched discreetly into the side of the tool, and you’ve got everything you need for small-scale precision work, whether it’s marking wood for a DIY project or quickly measuring something on the go. It’s these subtle touches that make the PryMax 2.0 not just a practical tool, but a pleasure to use.

The PryMax 2.0 measures 13.7cm (5.4 inches) and weighs just 95 grams (3.3 ounces)

A true everyday carry wouldn’t be complete without a few features that make it worth carrying everywhere you go. The PryMax 2.0’s bottle opening feature fits that bill perfectly, because you never know when you’ll need to crack open a brewski. The bottle opener’s cleverly (and rather discreetly) built right into the wrench, giving you a 3-in-one feature that opens bottles, tightens bolts, and even measures objects! The integrated phone stand is a nice touch too, allowing you to instantly dock/mount your phone in either landscape or portrait and watch a video while sipping on said brewski. Even the finer details of this tool are tailored for those who value both function and form. Five tritium slots line the tool, allowing for personal customization with glowing inserts. Whether for practical low-light visibility or just a touch of aesthetic flair, these tritium tubes offer a level of personalization that’s rare in such a compact device. It’s the kind of thoughtful design element that resonates with those who appreciate a tool that’s both personal and functional—more than just an accessory, it’s an extension of its owner’s style.

The PryMax 2.0 comes in a single color – after all what’s classier than bare, machined titanium?! It starts at $159, which is a steal considering the 10-in-1 nature of the multitool, and the fact that it’s literally designed to outlast you. The deep pocket clip and lanyard hole make the EDC perfect to carry around with you everywhere you go, and the lack of a blade or sharp edge immediately makes the PryMax 2.0 TSA-approved for carrying on flights too. The PryMax 2.0 ships globally for free starting January 2025.

Ultra-compact Tactical Titanium EDC packs 12 Different Tools in the size of an AirPods Case

Posted on by

We’ve seen carabiner clips with fold-out knives or screwdrivers before, but there’s something special about the Multi-Kit. Firstly, it isn’t a traditional carabiner, and secondly, it does a little more than integrate just a fold-out knife or screwdriver. In fact, it integrates a whopping 12 tools into its tiny form that’s roughly the size of an AirPods case. This Swiss Army Knife from an alternate reality has all the tools you need to disassemble stuff, repair objects, go camping, and even defend yourself in an emergency. Moreover, it’s made from Grade 5 Titanium, every EDC lover’s material of choice, making it not just incredibly robust and reliable, but also corrosion-proof and lightweight, at just 29.8 grams… that’s lighter than an AirPods case too!

Designer: EckDesign

The overall silhouette of the Multi-Kit is defined by the fact that it’s a carabiner. It comes with a hollow cutout in the center, sporting different tools across its periphery. The fact that it’s a carabiner matters probably the most here, given the entire form follows function philosophy – but the Multi-Kit isn’t your average carabiner. Rather than having a flexible arm, it sports a bolt-style mechanism with a spring-loaded bolt that’s much more secure, eliminating any accidental opening. This allows you to affix the Multi-Kit to your backpack or belt loop, or even slide a couple of keyrings in for a more consolidated EDC experience.

Move past the carabiner and you get to the Multi-Kit’s ‘meat’, its array of tools carefully integrated into the design. First, you’ve got the fold-out tools like the tiny D2 knife and the file for sanding down objects, designed to fold away into the body of the Multi-Kit when not in use. The small blade is diminutive but deadly, sporting a drop-point edge that’s perfect for cutting, piercing, and even scraping. For abrasive work, the file works remarkably well, with its top functioning as a pry bar and flathead screwdriver too. However, if you want to work with Philips-heads or any other kinds of screws, the Multi-Kit houses a hex-bit in a slot in its body. Held in place via magnets, the bit docks in when not in use, and can be pulled out and fixed into the front, transforming the multitool into a proper flat-grip driver that’s easy to twist.

The rest of the Multi-Kit’s tools are cleverly integrated into its body design. You’ve got a thick flathead screwdriver for larger, more stubborn screws, two hex wrenches (in 4mm and 6mm standard sizes), as well as a bottle opener for cracking open a cold one while you sweat away working on your DIY project or fixing up some tech or appliance.

Hiding away in plain sight is the Multi-Kit’s final tool, a tungsten-tip glass breaker that shatters even reinforced glass with a single strike. Perfect for exiting a car in an emergency (or breaking through the glass box to access a fire extinguisher), the tungsten top sits quietly in the bottom of the multitool’s design, and can be used simply by striking the tip against any glass with adequate force. Its abrasive properties make it great for etching on glass too, or even using as a glass scorer/cutter although that’s an art you’ll need to master.

Finally, the multitool packs a lanyard hole for stringing a lanyard or paracord grip through (either for style or if you’d rather use the carabiner for holding items instead of being a clip accessory). The titanium body even has tritium slots machined into it, so you can pop tritium capsules into your EDC to make it visible in low-light settings.

Despite its tool-rich design, the Multi-Kit remains remarkably compact. It slips easily into your pocket or clips onto a bag with its built-in carabiner, which doubles as yet another tool, further emphasizing the space-saving nature of the design. A lot of this gets attributed to the use of Grade-5 titanium as a material, one of the strongest-known materials to mankind. This makes the Multi-Kit about as robust as it is compact, and although makers at Eck Design don’t specifically guarantee the Multi-Kit will last forever, they do allude to the fact that it’ll definitely be the one EDC that can take on any activity you throw at it and still survive long enough to become an heirloom.

Designed for versatility, this multitool is perfect for those who love to be prepared without carrying a full toolbox. Whether you’re an outdoors enthusiast, a DIYer, or just someone who likes to have a reliable tool on hand, the Multi-Kit’s 12 functions cover everything from slicing to tightening bolts to providing that all-important bottle opener. It’s the kind of tool that you’ll find yourself reaching for more than you’d expect—if only to appreciate how much they managed to fit into something so small.

Compact EDC multi-tool is a toolbox in your pocket that’s ready to fix anything

Posted on by

One of the worst feelings in the world is facing a simple problem only to realize that you don’t have the right tool to fix it right then and there. This is especially true for people who work with their hands, whether as a tradesperson, a hobbyist, an adventurer, or even just someone who prefers to always be prepared to face any eventuality. Most would probably love to bring all their essential tools with them, but not only would that be cumbersome, it might even raise a few red flags here and there. Multifunctional tools or simply multi-tools for everyday carry bags and kits have become popular for this very reason, but many sacrifice functionality for the sake of boasting about their small sizes. Fortunately, it’s indeed possible to combine compactness and usefulness, and this handsome pocket wrench slash multi-tool is proud to show how.

It’s not that easy to find an EDC tool that perfectly balances quality, functionality, and accessibility. Some promise small and light designs but skimp on durability or offer very few tools inside their compact body, while others do come like a tank but cost like gold. That’s why the OmniPro Tool is such a marvel of design and engineering, cramming no less than nine features in a single tool that’s no bigger than a credit card.

Yes, the OmniPro Tool boasts nine functional tools, or ten if you include the lanyard. The wrench is probably the most obvious one, offering precision and a secure grip for quick fixes or adjustments. That’s just the tip of the iceberg, of course, as every nook and cranny of this pocket tool has a secret to tell. That same spanner, for example, can be used as a very accurate caliper that not only lets you measure objects in an instant but also demonstrates the design’s attention to detail and craftsmanship. Need to measure something straight or draw a straight line? The side of the OmniPro Tool also functions as a ruler for quick and easy measurements.

The OmniPro Tool also functions as a bit driver that supports standard 1/4-inch hex bits and 1/6-inch bits, ensuring that you’re always ready to tackle any project, repair job, or task. Even better, it features a bit storage compartment that can hold up to four standard 1/4-inch hex bits. The compartment magnetically attaches to the spanner so those bits are never far from where you need them. A bi-directional ratchet screwdriver allows you to quickly switch direction with a simple thumb flick so that you won’t need two tools when you can do with one. The bottom of the multi-tool has a strategically placed window breaker so that you won’t be caught unprepared for emergencies. And when the work is done, you can use the OmniPro Tool to open a bottle of your favorite beverage. It even works as a phone stand so you can just sit back and relax, watching your favorite shows.

Even with all these features, the OmniPro Tool maintains a compact and lightweight size that’s also durable and weatherproof thanks to Grade 5 Titanium. Another proof of its thoughtful design is the three slots that can accommodate 1.5mm x 6mm tritium illumination, helping you see and locate the tool even in the dark. Whether you’re ready to take on the great outdoors, planning your next DIY project, or simply preparing for anything life may throw at you, the OmniPro Tool lets you carry your toolbox in your pocket so that you will never leave home unprepared ever again.

Extreme EDC: This rugged Titanium Hatchet is your Best Friend for Outdoor and Tactical Scenarios

Posted on by

Sure, it’s no Thor’s Stormbreaker, but the HYZER’s handy size and reliable design make it a perfect part of your outdoor or camping EDC. With a highly customizable design that lets you choose the axe head thickness, handle length, and even the color of the grip, the HYZER can be personalized to your liking, whether you need something hefty for felling short trees, or just a light, sharp, maneuverable axe to skin hunted animals and defend yourself in a skirmish.

Designer: Exceed Designs

It isn’t often you see hatchets made from titanium. The material, known for its enduring nature, is often seen in smaller EDCs that need strength in a compact form factor. Hatchets, by definition, are large instruments, and can rely on brute force to make their impact. However, the HYZER’s choice of being machined from solid 6AL-4V GR5 titanium sets it apart in a bunch of ways. For starters, the material allows the axe to be a lot lighter and thinner than its steel counterparts. The HYZER features a skeletonized handle that shifts all the weight to the blade on top, allowing you to swing with force. The head, however, comes fashioned from D2 steel, known for its reliability and edge-retention. Heavier than titanium, it shifts the weight to the top which makes the hatchet more efficient.

The HYZER comes with a few potential modifications that allow you to personalize your EDC. You’ve got a choice between short and long handle lengths, with the option of either going with the skeletonized handle, or opting for a woven handle that offers a significantly better grip. Similarly, the axe head comes in three weight classes too – a lightweight variant that weighs 6.77 ounces, a medium variant that weighs 7.44 ounces, and the heaviest variant that weighs 8.88 ounces. The heads attach to the handle using four countersunk screws to maintain the HYZER’s flush, sleek design, and can easily be replaced or customized depending on your need.

So what would you really need a titanium hatchet for? Well, the HYZER is best suited for adventure and tactical situations. Whether it’s braving the elements in the outdoors, or just old-fashioned survival, the HYZER is quite the sidekick for the job. Depending on your handle, the HYZER Measures either 8.15″ or 9.75″ long, weighing 12.3 or 13.8 ounces. Storing the HYZER is easy thanks to the option of an add-on sheath. Maker ‘Exceed Designs’ offers a classic sheath made from genuine Horween leather, or a molded sheath made from Kydex with an included adjustable belt clip (shown above).

Aside from the various spec customizations, the HYZER also has a few color variants to choose from. The handle comes with a choice between stonewashed, grey, or black PVD finish, while the axe head has four colors to choose from, ranging from stonewashed to two shades of grey, and finally the PVD black variant. If you choose to have your handle wrapped in paracord, there are 8 color options you can choose from, ranging from vibrant to covert.

The HYZER Ti Hatchet starts at $170, with different attachments/modifications being available for an add-on cost. Each hatchet is assembled in USA and comes with a lifetime warranty. The HYZER is limited to just a 500-unit run, so if you’re interested in grabbing one for yourself, head to the Exceed Designs website and snag yourself a hatchet before it’s all gone!

Space-inspired titanium watch traces the Earth and Moon’s orbit around the Sun

Posted on by

Although the measurement of time is mostly a human construct, it has its basis in the natural world. A day is the time it takes for the sun to rise, set, and rise again, a month is how long it takes for the moon to go through all four of its phases, and a year is how long the seasons last. All of these, including the change of seasons, are pretty much the result of the orbit of the Earth around the sun and the orbit of the Moon around the Earth. It’s a movement that happens on a regular cadence without fail, which is to say it happens like clockwork. It’s no surprise, then, to find an elegant and luxurious watch that brings all these elements together, letting you watch not only the passage of time each day but also the journey of our planet and its companion.

Designer: Theo Auffret (Complication), Olivier Gamiette (Case, Dial) for SpaceOne Watches

Analog watches are already quite complex because of the mechanisms that make the parts move, but the SpaceOne Tellurium takes that to a whole new level with additional complications for its unique complication (pun intended). Aside from the typical hour and minute hands, this titanium watch also shows tiny versions of the Earth and the Moon going around a proportionally minuscule sun in the middle. The smaller spheres don’t simply go around the watch and call it a day, though, because the movement of these miniature Earth and Moon mirror the actual rhythm of their celestial counterparts.

Connected to the watch’s Soprod Caliber P024 movement is a star wheel with 31 teeth, representing the days in a month. When the date changes, this wheel advances two small star wheels, both with 12 teeth, that advance the month and move the Tellurium complication, respectively. The Earth, and therefore also the Moon, is connected to a ring with 365 teeth, which makes it complete a revolution once a year. With this mechanism, you can accurately follow the movement of the Earth and the Moon and even predict the next full or new moon phases. Consequently, it also means you will need to adjust and fine-tune the watch every time the number of days in a month changes between 30 and 31.

The watch’s celestial beauty is complemented by its premium materials and stunning design. Grade 5 titanium gives the case and strap buckle durability and lightness while also lending an elegant appearance. Instead of the typical quarter division of numbers, the watch face is divided into three sections only, forming a triangular shape that feels more suitable for a space-inspired design. This visual is further enhanced by a black and blue color scheme, with a sprinkle of white dots to represent stars against the darkness of space.
