Daily utility meets design in EDC multitools. And here at Yanko Design, we have this knack for recognizing the best tools for you, which would provide advanced features and excellent value when you need them. In the market flooded with multitools that are designed to fold and twist, Prometheus Design Werx has surprised the demanding with the stunning idea of the SPD Ti-Spork Chop – a multitool in its own unibody design.
While multitools that fold and feature pull-out accessories from the body are a common sight, it is unusual for a multitool to arrive in a one-piece design with construction that’s durable enough to withstand whatever you can throw at it. Looking at the Ti-Spork Chop, you can instantly count it out as a viable pocket tool, but spare a thought and read further before you arrive at a conclusion.
Designer: Prometheus Design Werx
The look of the Ti-Spork Chop is self-explanatory of what the design entails. But the first thing that can disturb many is how to fit that EDC into the pocket. To ensure that it is possible and effortless, the one-piece multitool features a pocket clip to hold it in place inside the pocket. And when you’re unsure of having it in the pocket, the tool’s lanyard hole makes carrying it worry-free. The look may not obviously suggest, but this tool has six built-in functions.
It obviously starts with the combination of a spoon and fork in the front, which clearly wins it the word ‘Spork’ (combination of spoon and fork) in its name. Besides, making it a valuable EDC for casual campers and serious adventurers are features like the bottle opener, box/can opener, and a prybar. Of course, the pocket clip on one side and the lanyard in the middle are other notable options that make the tool even more handy.
Describing various scenarios in which the multitool can be used, the company notes, “Whether you’re shoveling canned peaches, stirring your precious hot cup of instant coffee with powdered creamer in some remote, dangerous corner of the world, or opening a bottle of Jarritos, our Ti-Spork Chop has got you covered.” It’s “A titanium spork to rule them all…” the company website reads.
All these tools are packed on a Ti-Spork Chop that’s milled from a single piece of 6AL-4V grade-5 titanium. The construction makes it highly durable and exceptionally resistant to corrosion. The design, as opposed to that of other folding multitools, ensures that it is easy to clean. Weighing roughly 30g and measuring about 4.72 inches long, the lightweight but incredibly robust Prometheus Design Werx multitool is available on the company website for only $79.
