Hacksmith Industries has focused its engineering chops into creating a lightweight titanium multi-tool that looks like a compact pocket knife, but actually packs up to 21 features. Oh, and its blade is strong enough to cut a Swiss Army knife in half.

If you've already made a titanium multitool with six handy features, how do you improve on it? That's right, you add more features. The Orioner T8 now boasts nine-plus functions, adding a whistle and more to returning favorites such as a steel blade.

This compact multitool tackles a range of measurement, drawing, cutting, and positioning tasks. If you're an architect, engineer, contractor, woodworker, or DIY enthusiast – or if you have one of those in your life – the Omni-R is worth a look.

This gizmo sounds perfect for someone in your life who's already got everything: a portable printer that puts art on your plate. The palm-sized EdiBot promises to dish out full-color designs featuring just about anything you can dream up.

Motors have been added to bikes, skateboards and kayaks … so how about just slapping a couple to your legs? That's what the Z1 knee exoskeleton does, offering a 50% boost in the wearer's calf and thigh strength while reducing knee pressure by 200%.

While a great number of multitools have built-in pry bars, those bars aren't very useful if they can't apply much leverage. A new eight-function tool addresses that problem in a unique fashion, by folding to become an angled crowbar.

So, you wanna drink from a water bottle while cycling, but you don't like the idea of tipping your head way back and taking your eyes off the road. Well, this bottle was designed to accommodate folks like you, as it features its own electric pump.

As is the case with cameras, the best flashlight is always gonna be the one you have on you. The NanoB9 is likely to fit that bill, as it packs three colors of light and nine operational modes into a "coin-sized" dual-magnet-packing body.

What do you do after successfully crowdfunding a tiny knife and a tiny pen? If you're London gear company Malboro & Kane, you combine them to form a clever gadget known as the SlashPen, which also features a screwdriver and a glass-breaking tip.

To pocket clip or not to pocket clip? It's a question many a folding knife owner has considered. Peak Spec has a better answer, and it calls it the Apex Ghostclip. Luckily for those interested, it's more than an apparition – or it's getting there.

Most multitools are rectangular, but why should that one shape get to have all the fun? The Ti-Scout packs eight tools into a triangular form factor, which spreads the functionality across two stacked plates connected by a pivot point at one corner.

What if your music could move you in ways it never has before? That's what Groove Thing promises to accomplish with 'the world's first internal music player,' where its vibrator "transmits music sound waves as rich, nuanced physical sensations."
