Byrdrench's Two-Fisted Multi-Tool

Byrdrench/Spiderco/$55

The Byrdrench would fit right in with 007's arsenal. Not only does it pack a small toolbox in it's slender form, it also separates down the middle to reveal an easy-open knife blade. It's the closest thing you're going to find this side of Cybertron to a Transformer—not to mention, it serves as four different types of hand tools while lookin' good. Toolmonger

A successful DIY project always starts with the right tools for the job. And no one is better than helping with that first step than our good friends over at toolmonger.com. We've long been fans of their heroic coverage of the wide, wide world of tools—if you can find it at Home Depot, chances are the guys at Toolmonger have put it through its paces.

So it's with great pleasure we introduce the Toolmonger Top 5, a weekly roundup of the best new tools and products. Launch the gallery here, and keep a look out for a new one each Friday: Just in time for your weekend projects.
