The best multitool is the one that you actually have with you. Thanks to its tiny size, along with features such as two screwdrivers, two wrenches and a folding steel blade, the Orioners T6 keyring tool isn't likely to get left at home.

Although there are now a number of multitools that sport tiny adjustable wrenches, the TiSpanner was the first to do so. It's now available in a larger and beefier third-generation incarnation, aptly named the TiSpanner 3.0.

If you're going to be carrying a compass anyway while out in the wilderness, why not carry one that performs multiple functions? That's the idea behind the Loki-Nav compass, which also packs a mirror, magnifying glass, and tinder-making wood file.

Although many multitools pack a ton of features, some of those features often take the form of tiny, near-useless tools. The VAK6 keeps things simple with a knife, flashlight and pulse ignitor, along with an optional cranked generator for recharging.

You pretty much always need keys, but it's often nice to have a few tools on hand, too. The VersaLink allows you to carry some of both in one modular, magnetic, titanium-bodied device.

Sure, electric cargo bikes may indeed be very useful, but they're also pretty darn long and heavy as compared to regular commuter bikes. That's where the Frolic comes in, as it can be quickly converted from the one to the other.

With help from small tracking gadgets plus the ubiquitous smartphone, we can now keep tabs on our belongings – wherever they may be. Now a startup is crowdfunding a nifty tag that includes an E Ink screen to display contact details and photos in color.

When it comes to motorized inline skates, pretty much every product we've seen requires you to buy a whole new set of electric skates. The Blade Booster is different, as it adds a removable powered wheel to your existing third-party rollerblades.
