Chijoff+Co set out one day to make the most beautiful, convenient, and versatile toolkit ever. That distinction doesn’t come easily, but the M250 toolkit just sits in the sweet spot. It’s small but isn’t flimsy. It’s portable but also versatile. Can strap to your belt or attach to the fridge. The tiny toolbox comes with 12 of its own hex-bits but can dock 14 bits, giving you the ability to store two of your own bits too.
Designed to fix everything from cameras to skateboards, and from cabinets to bicycles, the M250 is tiny yet covers a an extremely wide range. Armed with the most popular hex bits, the M250 lets you tinker and fix anything anywhere. The bits dock right into the M250’s frame, turning the case itself into a high-torsion handle that’s easy to maneuver and twist, screwing or unscrewing the toughest bolts and screws with relative ease. Magnetic retention within the case allows the bits to snap into place and stay there, while also making it easier to work with tiny metal screws too. The M250 packs a 2-inch extender rod, for accessibility, so no screw’s left behind!
The M250 comes with 12 robust S2 tool-steel bits with a titanium oxide coating for shine as well as unparalleled strength. The casing and even the outer cover come crafted from a military-grade composite that’s both incredibly strong but also extremely lightweight, and isn’t abrasive either, so you could easily chuck the M250 into your laptop bag without worrying about it scratching anything. The entire toolkit is no bigger than a lighter, making it incredibly handy and ergonomic. The M250’s holster comes with a nifty pocket-clip, so you can carry the power of an entire tool-box with you on your belt, while a magnetic plate allows you to easily snap the M250 to your fridge or the magnetic tool-rack in your shed. Made to fix practically anything, and to go practically anywhere, the M250 really does fit in the sweet spot. At just over a 100 grams, it’s perhaps one of the lightest tool-kits ever, and with as many as 14 hex-bits inside it, it’s literally built for any scenario. Oh, did I also mention, the M250 is TSA-approved to carry on flights too?

Specs and Materials
A feature of the M250 is the use of an advanced engineering grade composite in the Magazine. This provides both an ultra lightweight structure (~40% lighter than titanium) with the necessary strength. The composite is typically used as a metal replacement and perfect for our requirements for the high torque socket.
Manufacturing
Over the course of of 2018-2019 we have been busy developing and refining the M250. Some 50+ prototypes we created over the course of this period. In addition we have further developed our existing M100 multitool that uses a lot of the manufacturing + material technology. As such we are confident in the final design that we have pushed to production.
