Thanks to clever design, this new one packs a whopping 24 bits in a lightweight body that's way more compact than you'd expect.On the outside, the Zevor looks like a fairly conventional screwdriver that can accept various bits – albeit with a beautiful anodized aluminum alloy finish. Push on the head, and the bottom of the handle will pop up to reveal storage for 12 double-sided bits.That means you only need to carry this 2.3-oz (65-g) tool to work on a wide range of gadgets and electronics, as well as DIY projects. Plus, the S2 steel bits remain attached to the internal case, so they don't rattle around when stored. The design is simple and practical, and I like that the handle is textured to increase grip for precision with small items. The Hidden Pop-Up Precision Screwdriver for Everyday Carry The Zevor measures 4.9 inches (12.5 cm) in length, making it small enough to drop into most pockets or any EDC loadout.This screwdriver is being crowdfunded on Kickstarter, where you can get one from as little as US$19 – that's discounted from its expected retail price of $36. There's also a handsome perfectly-sized leather case available as an add-on, if you want to gift it.

For what it's worth, it's crossed its funding goal with nearly 200 backers on board already.
