Hyper-Customizable Hammer

The 'Cole-Bar Hammer' Easily Becomes Several Tools in One

The 'Cole-Bar Hammer' is much more than your grandpa's rusty metal hammer. A collaborative invention by Lance, Brandon and Heather Hyde, the 'Cole-Bar Hammer' is a tool-wiz's dream: a hammer that can fold out into a full-fledged series of tools.

Made up of two equal metal pieces that connect with a single gear, the 'Cole-Bar Hammer' comes with several degree increments. You're free to customize and adjust the pieces to whatever position you want and turn the 'Cole-Bar Hammer' into either a ruler, a socket wretch, a hammer, or your own unique tool.

Each incremental change locks into place, so there's no fear of your wrench/hammer/crow bar coming apart on you and hurting your precious little fingers. A great little multi-purpose find to de-clutter your tool box and keep life a little bit more simple.
