At only 3” in length it has six different sized hex cutouts, a screwdriver, pry bar, bottle opener, scoring tool, and a pocket clip so you can dangle it from your belt loop if you want. Griffin managed to pack eleven tools into a piece of metal small enough to use as your keychain. The Griffin Pocket Tool is one of those tools that provides plenty of functionality without raising any eyebrows. Whether you’re in a corporate setting or going through airport security, you might find yourself needing something that doesn’t attract too much attention. In this guide, we'll help you keep your bases covered with the best one-piece multi-tools you can get. Whether you’re looking to slim down your pockets or just want a backup tool for your keychain, a one-piece multi-tool could be the perfect compromise between functionality and convenience. And while one-piece multi-tools might not be the most ergonomic to use, they make up for it in durability and portability. These one-piece multi-tools are ideal for people who can't justify carrying a full-sized pliers-based tool, or those who just want a smaller multi-tool for light duty use in a pinch. Some multi-tools, however, come with no moving parts at all. Both have tried-and-true form factors that get the job done quite well, but all their moving parts tend to add complexity and bulk. In this particular situation, if I didn’t have that tool, I would’ve had to have all of the people helping with the refrigerator, wait at the new house, while I drove back to the old house to pick up a screwdriver and Torx driver, wasting precious time.When you think of a good multi-tool, you probably picture something like a Leatherman Wave or a Swiss Army Knife. When the tool was in the “L” configuration (as in the photo above), it had plenty of leverage to tighten the banisters back onto the wall… I didn’t need to go back later with a full-sized screwdriver to tighten the screws further. Then I used the #2 Phillips head from the tool to remove and replace the banisters. I didn’t have my tools moved over yet…so, I used this little tool’s T10 Torx bit to remove and replace the refrigerator handles.
We were going to need to remove the handles from the fridge and the banisters from the stairway wall to make this work. It ends up being a very tight fit only 1″ away from the wall on each side. I had three additional people taking time out of their day to help me take this beast up the stairs. On the first day of moving, I found myself stuck at the bottom of my new stairway with a huge, heavy refrigerator. The #2 Phillips head bit that saved my butt. I thought it would be a good addition to my keychain. It was a slim, compact, well-thought-out, and high-quality tool, as you would expect from Wolf Tooth. I received the 6-Bit Hex Wrench from Dan and Kurt of Wolf Tooth Components while visiting them at the Sea Otter Classic last April. So, I always have it.Īfter a few emergency needs, while moving over the last three weeks, I’ve decided that maybe a review of this little tool was in order. At the same time, after having it for a few months, the tool has become one of those things that I felt I would need the second I didn’t have it. I mean, the Wolf Tooth 6-Bit Hex Wrench is a great little tool, and I’ve had it on my keychain since I got it, but I haven’t had to use it yet while on the bike, and I work for a bicycle publication, so I just chalked it up that I wasn’t going to review it.
