The Bottle Cap Wrench by Craftsman is manliness incarnate. Drop forged in the same USA factories as Craftsman tools it carries the same unconditional guarantee as it’s brethren: If any Craftsman hand tool ever fails to provide complete satisfaction, Return it to any Sears store or other Craftsman outlet in the United States for free repair or replacement.

After some thorough Gear Patrol style testing (refer to pics) we’d be shocked if you ever need to take advantage of the warranty, but impressive none the less. From a functional standpoint the Bottle Cap Wrench features patent pending fulcrum design, for both “lift up or push down removal”. With either method it elicited “wooowwws” and “where do I get one?” from everyone who tried it. Bottle caps were surrendering to the Cap Wrench quicker than the French to…well anyone and everyone.

Admittedly bottle openers are simple beast, but this is the best one we’ve ever tried. It’s a necessary addition for any beer man. The solid heft should also allow you to fend off any party crashers with ease.

Author’s Note: Sears offers the Bottle Cap Wrench with engraving. We suggest this as an excellent groomsman gift or Xmas gift for your buddies.

Cost: $15

Neat-o! Swizzle sticks made from ice!

I thought this was a pretty cool idea. I’m not big on wearing items that have skulls and crossbones on them, but the somewhat incognito flask in the belt buckle idea is spot on.
