Clever Tool Design: Wiha's Hex Key Set with a Surprise
Sometimes it's the tiny, thoughtful details that make product designs stand out
The German manufacturer Wiha brings some seriously kick-ass innovation to modern-day users of hand tools. If you don't believe us, check out their stuff that we saw at Holz-Handwerk last year.
Here's one we didn't spot (their booth sold out quickly at the event, so it must've been one of the first to go): Think of your common L-shaped hex key sets, which most of us have rattling around in a drawer somewhere. What's the one area for design improvement, the one thing you could do to the holder that would make it easier to use?
Ah, it's this:
Unfortunately, the American link for this product appears to be broken. I'm still bummed that a company with such flair for product design has such a crappy U.S. website.
