The tool is shaped just like a writing utensil with [interchangeable caps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/titanium-multifunctional-magnetic-screwdriver) to help with all sorts of odd jobs. The tool is designed to be an octagonal cylinder pen available in either silver, gold or black metallic colorways. Instead of containing ink, this pen features [sixteen different tool bits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/airtag-multitool) that can easily be interchanged depending on the need.
