Ready, Set, Grip!
Designed to eliminate the two-handed fumbling required by other multi-tools,
the SwitchPlier springs into action at the push of a button. In addition to the
pop-out pliers, the compact aluminum case houses
five locking stainless-steel
components, including a
can and bottle opener;
small, medium, and large
screwdrivers; a half-serrated
blade; a three-sided file; and a
quarter-inch socket drive.
For $74.95, the SwitchPlier has enough tools on
board to make it a useful addition to any pants pocket, and
enough cool to make West Side Story’s Riff jealous.
