Got the Atwood Itch?

Well, maybe the Atwood Chigger™ will help you scratch it. :D

The simple design of this cute little tool pays homage to the classic key ring screwdriver/pry tools of the past but adds a bottle opener and 5/16" wrench. The large 3/4" hex opening makes it easy to slip onto a keyring and helps provide grip. The Chigger™ is made of 5/32" thick CPM S30v steel, is 2.25" long and features a stone washed finish. These are $45 plus shipping.

Thanks folks, these are gone for now! I very much appreciate it.

  5. My Atwood desk Safari has finally produced a trophy. I bagged this little Chigger at 6:16 AM Pacific time just as it poked it's little stone washed head out of the nest. I think I will just hang it on the wall in the trophy room and admire it from time to time.

  14. This is getting way out of hand for me. Another Atwood to the collection. Blasted XL has not even arrived yet!
    Peter, do me favor, take a long vacation. Take your camera and photograph the foliage, read a book, clean the shop, anything so I can recoup some cash!
    If my wife sees another "Priority Mail" in the box, well..."gulp"..

  22. Just got off the phone with my girlfriend ... she also got one! Interestingly, we each intended to give the one we bought to each other as a surprise gift. Now if that ain't romance, I don't know what is! Today is already turning out to be a damn good day.

    Dagnabbit...

  26. Man! I checked the site RIGHT before this went up and didn't check again until after they were all sold out! Man!!! That's okay- maybe next time...care to give us a hint as to when the next item will go up, Peter? You know you want to!

    ReplyDelete
  27. Thanks guys! I'm still working on the labels and getting the Chiggers packaged up to ship. No idea when the next release will be just yet.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Forget the when, what about the what? I still have a feeling this isn't the mystery items you previously mentioned and even if it was this is only one of them.

  29. Dammit. Now I have to watch on Sunday too!!

    ReplyDelete
  30. Wow! A secondary prybaby market has turned up on Ebay. :) I never got a chance to get a XL Mini maybe I can now... :0 Bastards!

  31. Tricky - early Sunday morning post. Fortunately, I have an alarm set most mornings on my PDA to check this site...snagged a Chigger (that doesnt sound right!)

    ReplyDelete
  32. THAT is a cool little tool.

    ReplyDelete
  33. Chigger just arrived. What a neat little tool! I like the new (?) smaller stamp. It looks really nice and clean. Thanks for the quick service! :D

    ReplyDelete
  34. Mine arrived today as well, and it's a brilliant design, superior to the Mini as a bottle opener: the leverage point is closer to the middle of the bottle cap than to the far edge, and the ring is easier to grip than the flat stock of the mini. My new favorite. :-)

  35. This might be my favorite Atwood tool yet. I can't wait until more are available.

    ReplyDelete
  36. any chance for a 15mm version to supplement my Atwood Bike Tool

    ReplyDelete
  37. My bottle opener takes at least 2 and sometimes 3 attempts before it pops the top. Am I missing something, or is this normal. It almost seems like the metal is soo hardened it slips rather than bites the bottlecap.
