Every swagger-infused item contained in this male accessory tool box is more than a sleek outfit enhancer. This product is called Swagger Toolbox and it is designed by Metal Dreamer with the vision to create a real-life James Bond accessory kit.

There are three items in the accessory tool box that are dripping with swagger and have more than one function. The tie clasp is also a bottle opener, a cutter and a box opener. The cuff-links are wire strippers, a screw driver and a protractor. The collar stay is a letter opener, a straight edge and a hex wrench.

The Swagger Toolbox brings function to formal wear with its distinguished collection of gentlemen accessories taking a modern approach to the phrase '[jack of all trades](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/airtag-multitool)'. The accessory tool box comes in neutral elegant colors of black, silver and gold to complement any man's fashion-forward outfit.
