Following the re-introducing of the hand-axe size “Trucker’s Friend” multitool several years back, the Philadelphia-based Innovation Factory group is launching a smaller “Lil’ Trucker” version the company says was designed by firefighters. (It’s pictured above.)
Read the story behind the Trucker’s Friend tool, pictured, in this Overdrive Extra post from a few years back.With its trademark sense of humor, the company is calling the Lil’ Trucker the “most ass-kicking multi-tool since primates first picked up the bone in 2001: A Space Odyssey.”
It’s an “all-in-one axe, wrench, bottle opener, and fold-out saw.” Also: It works pretty well on zombies, as the short film below well proves.
Gotta have it? The company’s launching a Kickstarter.com crowd-funding campaign to fund production of the tool Wednesdday, May 6. Keep an eye out for it via Kickstarter.com.
