I'm trying to track down one of these:

It's called a Cool Tool.

Anyone know where I can get one in the UK?

I've found one in the US, but as usual shipping costs are steep.

I had one, cracking wee tool when it was out - nothing else like it at the time. The stuff you can get nowadays is far better but it did a very good job.

I saw a Cool Tool still boxed in a local Halfords about a year ago - was on sale for about £7 - included the pouch but not the optional headset spanner(s) and bottom bracket tool (I still have those but I've now learnt my lesson about lending the tool to a druggie to fix their bike (don't - they then sell it for gear!) - he wasn't drugged up at the time as we were out on a bike ride with a group of us, but I loaned him the tool to fix his bike and forgot to collect it after the ride, shame as it was a handy tool.

Anyway, unless it's for nostalgic reasons, I wouldn't worry atoo much about getting one as the tools these days offer far more and are probably built tougher for either the same price or less.

I had the original version (with the pink pouch) - might still have the pouch actually - didn't realise it ever went to Titanium...
