This cutting-edge technology integrates magnets into the design making it easier for users to open, handle, and close the tools and eliminating the need for nail nicks. Plus, the internal locking system reduces the wear and tear on the individual implements which makes the Free tools even more durable than their predecessors. FREE tools offer the ultimate sensory experience with the smooth haptics as well as thedistinct click each tool makes when an implement is locked into place and ready for use.

Access to all implements from the outside of the tool. Plus, the elimination of a nail nick which required a fingernail to deploy the tool.
A proprietary magnetic architecture ensures smooth, frictionless deployment of the implements.
A new locking system that drastically reduces friction coupled with new elastomer springs making this collection the most durable we’ve ever produced.
