Addressing common shortcomings of multitools, the new TiNexus EDC ratchet balances effective leverage and portability. Available now on Kickstarter, it promises to redefine convenience for handymen and hobbyists alike.
- Lightweight titanium body weighs just 32 grams
- 72-tooth ratchet requires only 5 degrees swing arc
- Built-in bit storage and extendable torque lever included
What happened
TiNexus has introduced a new 20-in-1 multi-wrench currently available through Kickstarter. The tool is designed to overcome the usual limitations of multitools by offering a fully functional ratchet mechanism that's small enough for everyday carry without sacrificing strength or usability.
This ratchet features a Grade 5 titanium body measuring roughly the size of a pack of gum and weighing just over an ounce. With a 72-tooth gear requiring only a 5-degree swing, it can operate effectively in very tight spaces. Additional features include magnetic bit storage for up to 20 bits and an extendable lever for increased torque.
Why it feels good
The TiNexus tool’s design focuses on practical, real-world performance rather than simply cramming in many small, less useful features. Its titanium construction ensures strength and corrosion resistance while keeping the weight minimal, making it comfortable to carry all day.
The smaller swing arc dramatically improves maneuverability in confined spaces compared to traditional ratchets. The magnetic bit storage simplifies organization and access, while the extendable lever offers versatility by allowing the user to increase torque or reach without additional tools.
What to enjoy or watch next
Early backers can secure the titanium version for $199 on Kickstarter, with a retail price expected to be $329. There is also a more economical aluminum model offered at $119 during the campaign, rising to $189 in retail.
If successful, shipping of the TiNexus multi-wrench will begin by October. This tool is ideal for a wide variety of applications, from bicycle maintenance and furniture assembly to small home repairs, potentially becoming a staple of everyday carry kits.
