A few months ago I was shopping at my local Sears for a pliers set for the “house” tool kit.  These are pliers that the family has access to — which means they’ll probably be lost, used as a hammer, or just plain destroyed within the next few years — so I wanted tools that would do the job, but that I wouldn’t miss too much if they disappeared into the Lost Tool Zone.  This set by Evolv fit the bill nicely.

Evolv tools has put a new twist on speeder wrenches.  In its standard configuration you can twist the handle to turn the socket — but you can also pull the handle out to convert this ratchet into a high-speed cranking machine.
