Great video, Dom! I prefer the Doohickey Ratchet and really like it with some modification. First, I took their bits out to save weight. I typically need more clearance than half a bit above what I am trying to fasten or unfasten with a screw. Their bits have a ball detent and what I use does not. So what I use (the Steinwhale Stubby bit extender) passes through the ratchet and catches on the top of the extender cylinder. I don't mind this, as I can put downward pressure on the extender cylinder when screwing something in. I don't need the ratchet to "retain" the bit extender. As you know, the Steinwhale bit extender allows me to use double-sided Steinwhale stubby bits, double-sided Wiha bits and even Leatherman bits. Finally, there is a back up ratchet in case the main Doohickey unit fails or if there is not enough space to use the main ratchet. The bottle opener has a lip to it. The curved portion of the bottle opener fits a 1/4" hex bit or extender. The lip portion catches the hex going one direction, and the lip disengages going the other direction. As with the main ratchet, just turn the pry bar over to go the other direction. It's a genius bottle opener design that basically does the same thing EverRatchet built their whole brand on, and more pry bar and knife makers should pay heed to this design.

This was so awesome I just purchased the new clip from their website. Thank you.
Great company and product
An actual demo of the ratcheting would have been nice.
True, it was a lender...I should do what when I get mine
Nice video. Thank you.
A link would have been useful! Nice review.
Sorry didn't bother since it was a quick Google search. Its made by gear infusion
I'll try to update the video later
@@maxlvledc no worries, Google is my friend too!
Awesome, thank you.
What are your thoughts on metal rubbing against titanium
Really depends on frequency
👍👍 from where I can get these
amzn.to/3wrVvDu here u go
Will these cut up your pockets?
Carried in what way? The edges are actually very nicely beveled
@@maxlvledc just in your pant pocket? Will they make holes?
@@iivv_nn I don't think so, the Griffin pocket tool had much sharper edges, never had a problem with it.
Hey they dont mention where theyre made on their website can you tell me where they are made?
I don't know honestly
