Seemingly a piece of alien technology, the S3 Krypton Laser ($300) is the most powerful handheld laser you can legally own on Earth.

This Titanium-ized version of arguably one of the best pocket-sized tools known to man is available for only a very limited release – only 100 pieces are being manufactured, to be precise. What’s amazing about this is that the Piranha Titanium Pocket Tool ($95) even weighs 30% lower than its original stainless steel counterpart. The pocket tool’s excellent functionality remains intact though as it is capable of opening your favorite beverages, prying things open, tightening screws, and loosening bolts. With its compact physique, you can bring it just about anywhere (yes, even aboard airplanes as it is TSA-compliant), ready to get you out of any bind you may encounter.

The kit comes with a pry bar, screwdriver keys, precision tweezers, and a waterproof lighter that fits in the palm of your hand or in your pocket. At any given day, you could encounter a situation wherein you can use one – or some – of these tools. With the EDC Kit, you’re always ready for the screws that need screwing or the cigarettes that need lighting.

“The toughest jobs need the toughest tools“, states Wilton’s website. And that is most certainly true. When you’re hammering down the sturdiest of objects and surfaces, your sledge shouldn’t be the one to relent. Unfortunately, this can occur with hammers made of wood or fiberglass. The said materials just aren’t strong enough to hold out against abuse. So, for the most difficult jobs, there is only one hammer that is durable, indestructible, and won’t let you down when the tough gets going – the Bash Unbreakable Sledge Hammer ($40-$160). It is without a doubt the toughest sledge hammer ever built – molten steel bars reinforce the no-slip handle, as a locking steel plate holds the head to the said handle, making it the most reliable sledge in the market. The Bash has a $1,000 Unbreakable guarantee; they pay you this much when the product fails to live up to expectations after 2 years upon purchase – an apparent indication that points out Wilton’s confidence in their product.

A major caulking job can easily fatigue your arms. But not if you’re armed with the Milwaukee M18 Cordless Caulk Gun ($300).

We’ll usually recommend a power tool when it can do the job it’s made for really well. So we’ll doubly recommend the Rockwell Trans4mer ($250) for its performance and design. This rechargeable power saw can convert from jigsaw to reciprocating saw in seconds, allowing you to tackle twice more jobs with one tool. It’s compact, lightweight and features six cutting angles, an LED light to illuminate work areas and a dust blower to keep lines clear.

You may doubt that the Unbelievable Pocket Chain Saw ($18) can easily cut through limbs, branches and shrubs, but after you try it, it’ll make a believer out of you. This chain saw is lightweight, totally portable and can roll up to fit in your pocket or backpack. It’s made of high strength, heat treated steel with rust-resistant coating and features a 21-inch saw blade equipped with 92 bi-directional cutting teeth that cuts in both direction.

With an ultra-slim, low-profile and flexible design, Striker’s FlexIt ($26) easily fits in tight places and offers virtually unlimited lighting applications.

Keep the FlexIt flat to use as a flood light or bend to create a focused beam. It also has a durable ABS base with a loop and two large neodymium magnets for hanging the FlexIt around wires, tubes and pipes.
