This magnetically modular EDC multitool lets you select the tools you want

For the first time, here’s a piece of EDC that really makes a lot of sense. The Windeler makes the case that you could have a 32-in-1 multitool, but do you really need to carry all 32 tools with you everywhere you go? No, right? The Windeler multitool brings an almost bento-box approach to EDC, allowing you to create modular setups based on the tools you need whenever you need them. On some days all you need is a good multi-purpose knife, on other days you may need a complete screwdriver set, and when it’s exceptionally sunny out, you might want to carry your bottle-opener with you. The Windeler multitool, designed by Douglas Windeler, gives you that freedom to pick and choose (and carry) the tools you need. The multitool features a unique neodymium-based interlocking system that lets you snap tools together to create EDC that’s customized to your needs. With as many as 15 different units to choose from (featuring over 20 tools), the Windeler can be infinitely customized based on your need, and even be rearranged based on what tools you’re more likely to use.

The Windeler’s most defining detail is its neodymium magnetic attachment system that lets you snap together tools to make the multitool you need. The tools snap satisfyingly together to form a single easy-to-carry bunch, and can either swivel out when you need them, or be snapped off and used individually for more complex tasks. This uniquely user-friendly design detail allows you to arrange and rearrange your multitool set to suit your exact needs. Spanning a variety of categories, you can actually build your own tool-stacks based on specific activities like bicycling, surfing, or outdoor camping, with tools that are tailor-made for each activity. With everything from hex-bits to screwdrivers, and from bottle openers and prybars to a drop-point outdoor pocket-knife, the broad catalog of Windeler’s individual tools allows it to cover a wide range of use-cases… and that innovative magnetic modular system lets you decide exactly what tools you want to carry with you, and in what order. What we have here is a basic launch range, which will be followed up with plenty of other tools and knives in the near future. This will give you an opportunity (in the future), to get each tool individually or customize your set.

The hallmark of a great toolset is its ability to withstand rough use. Constructed out of Grade 5 Titanium, the Windeler is built to take on remarkable degrees of stress. With a tough Plasma nitride coating, the tools are practically scratch-proof, corrosion-resistant, and guaranteed to last decades even with regular, everyday use. Besides, the fact that they can easily be snapped together or pulled apart makes them ridiculously easy to clean if they ever get muddy or greasy. The titanium construction not only makes the Windeler tools ridiculously tough, it also ensures your EDC is lightweight… so whether you’re carrying just 2 tools with you, or 10 units snapped together, the only thing that ever matters to you is convenience. After all, isn’t that what EDC tools are all about?

Windeler – A Completely New Class of Multitool

The Windeler is a magnetic, modular Titanium multitool system that lets you select the tools you want and leave behind the rest.

Windeler brings you hand tools that connect together using neodymium magnets. This allows you to assemble them in any combination to create your Stack. You can add and remove tools in one easy movement.

The Tools

Windeler tools are individual modules designed to be used on their own. Each tool can be paired with any other in the range.

Windeler tools snap together using a magnetic connection. The tools comprise of a body made of high quality material and a magnetic connector.

The Materials

The majority of the tools are grade 5 Titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V). This material is lightweight, tough and non-corrosive.

The tools are Plasma nitride hardened to give them a super hard molecular shell.

Windeler uses the highest strength neodymium magnets encased in a protective stainless shell. The magnet assembly is then pressed into the tool body.

N52 Neodymium Magnets encased in Stainless steel armor and pressed into tool body.

Windeler tools connect with any others in their range but are designed to function on their own. Exactly as a hand tool should. The size of each tool has been carefully considered to maximize function for individual use. This gets around the awkwardness of standard multitools.
