Posted on by

From the guys who brought us the heavily talked about, Tool Pen, comes another innovative multi-tool. The Wrenchit is the Tool Pen’s BFF and wrench-based counterpart. Designed to be as light-weight and sleek as the tool pen, the Wrenchit is small, pocketable and can hold up to five wrenches. The entire kit comes with 10 interchangeable wrench-pieces, allowing you to work with Allen nuts, spoke nuts, wing nuts, and just to sweeten the deal, it can open bottles too. It comes in a beautiful consolidated package, wrapped in black leather; and makes a great addition to your tool kit, without occupying any space. I’ll say it, I’m thotoughly impressed!

Pop-A-Point Tools

Posted on by

Rewind to school days and do you recollect absentmindedly play with the Pop-A-Point rainbow pen? Who knew that such a simple idea of a functional mechanical pencil would inspire a bunch of designers to create an innovation that revolutionizes the tool industry! I’m talking about the Tool Pen by mininch; so cool and well designed! It’s a pint-sized all-tools-in-your-pocket and everyone loves this idea!

Makes Everything Beautiful

The smart and versatile Multi-Tool feels like holding a sleek pen and the unique Pop-A-Point design is functional and flexible. You can fit any sized tool to the head and keep everything handy and safe in one compact implement.

Enchanting Tools

We spoke to the team behind the Tool Pen and asked them their story; “mininch is funded by Issey Tsai and Yu-Hung Cheng and the design has also won number of awards including iF Product Design award & Red Dot Award: Design Concept award. We have strived to create a good design that stands for making a better life, moving from concept to production.”

“The naming of mininch is derived from “mini-inch”, which simply indicates our design mindset and goal, making all products perfectly exquisite & sophisticated in every inch, and every detail. Furthermore, a single “i” in the middle also represents the spirit of innovation, improvement, and intelligence!”

What Makes The Tool Pen Different

mininch believes that outstanding design is not only thing, presenting a user-friendly interface, and improving customers’ perception of life is equally important. “We intend to design something that really helps solve existing problems or create the real benefits for users, instead of the gimmicky items. And it should be the high-grade product that we love & use ourselves.”

Take Tool Pen for example, this is the world’s first “Pop-A-Point” pen style solution, it’s the most innovative, handsome, and convenient-to-carry multi-tool. People had never seen such a special product, that’s why it was well received since its launch.

Mininch Tool Pen Multi-tool: The Write Tool for the Job

Posted on by

The Mininch Tool Pen Multi-tool is like those pencils where you pop the lead out and then put the empty plastic in the top to push up a fresh point. Remember those? This is like that, only manlier. Mininch has made a screwdriver using this concept and it seems pretty handy.

The Mininch Tool Pen looks like a pen, but instead of writing tips, you get a set of useful screwdriver bits for those small jobs that pop up around the house. Unlike most multi headed screwdrivers, this is not bulky. Everything you need is in a compact form. It is made out of solid aluminum and holds six bits, but you can choose from 13 available options. Though it would be nice if one of the bits were an actual pen or a Sharpie.

The design is thin and even manages to be attractive. It is nice to see a well designed screwdriver that isn’t ugly. This multi-tool screwdriver set is easy to carry around in your pocket. You can preorder it through Kickstarter right now and sets start at $45(USD).
