The Swiss Army Knife of rings

How many times have you wished you had a bottle opener or a pen knife literally at your fingertips?  An etsy artisan has taken this EDC wish and has crafted the Man Ring. Forgiving its name, which doesn’t quite thrill me, it’s a pretty swank looking titanium ring multi-tool.  It features a bottle opener,  straight and serrated blades, saw, and a tiny comb.  All the tools are somehow housed in just a 9mm wide band that will be custom made to your ring size.  At $385, this is definitely pricey, but how many other guys not named Wolverine will have knives on their hands?  The Man Ring is available through the etsy shop boonerings.

Perhaps they could have named it the “Ming” instead…

See, “Ming” would have been awesome! A little mysterious, a little exotic…

the comb is a joke, right? :D

@nicky – the comb solidifies its status as a “man ring”, it’s a mustache comb…but for nearly $400 I wonder if you could request a customized tool for the ring.

This is going to be a nightmare for TSA…

I think the Kinekt Gear Ring for the price is better. T
