A spike in your pocket isn’t your typical EDC. But when you think about its many applications, it actually makes sense as a useful tool. You can use a spike to open boxes and to punch holes into materials. You can break hard ground and ice while on a camping trip, or make make markings on metal and wood for construction projects. For the commuters, you can use it to check for tire pressure or break through a window in an emergency.
The K Spike from Bobby Davis is his latest Kickstarter project, able to do all these tasks and more. It’s designed to be carried on a keychain with its split ring tail attachment, and the body itself acts as screw-in storage for the spike (its opposite tail end is a safe, smooth nub). The body’s diameter of 0.63” is akin to a pen for comfortable grip, with deep knurling for even better purchase when in its 3.25” spike configuration. The K Spike also gives collectors something else to look forward to: the option to mix and match materials like Tellurium copper, aluminum, and stainless steel for their spike and case duo. If you get the point and want to add the K Spike to your carry, check out the Kickstarter campaign at the link below.
