Product Name: Tuls
Price: $22 (stainless steel); $33 (titanium)
Who would like this?: Minimalists, geeks, dads, craftspeople, smartphone addicts
Tools are heavy; Tuls, on the other hand, are the size of credit cards, and they'll fit in a wallet just the same.
New England-based company Onehundred, which is obsessed with providing everyday products through "simple, thoughtful design," created these flat tools out of titanium and stainless steel. Originally a Kickstarter campaign that cleared its funding goal of $1,500 within two hours (and raised more than 25 times as much), the Tuls project takes care of day-to-day problems requiring basic tools.

Each sturdy, wallet-sized tool is known affectionately by a first name, and has its own range of specific purposes, whether it's to tighten a bolt or open a beer.

• Ollie: Ollie is by far the most inclusive member of the Tuls family. This jack-of-all-trades is ready for anything, complete with standard and metric wrenches, rulers, squares, drill guides, a spoke wrench, protractor, pry bar, hex drive and bottle opener. What more could you need?
• Stan: Stan is the perfect gift for techies and Netflix addicts. It contains two holes to wrap both a power cord and earphones. The best feature, however, is the vertical slot to hold 10mm-thick devices, acting as an on-the-fly smartphone stand to play games, watch videos and charge.
• Lucy: Lucy is a slightly simpler version of Ollie, designed for the garage. It contains metric, standard and spoke wrenches, in addition to a coarse screwdriver, hex drive, tire spoon, pry bar and, of course, the trusty bottle opener.
• Roul: Roul has metric and standard rulers, drill guides, squares, a protractor, plumb bob and pry bar. No bottle opener on this one, though — according to Onehundred, Roul is optimized for the workshop, woodworking, carpentry and crafts. It's great for measuring rod stock, lengths and angles.
• Opie: In the Tuls family, Opie is the simplest member, but it still holds that same minimalistic elegance. This one just serves as a straightforward bottle opener, and with a small keyring, it's suitable for keychains and lanyards.

Images: Onehundred Tuls are about as thick as a U.S. dime, and just as strong, too. They're also under the 7-inch length restriction for tools allowed in airplane carry-ons, making them great travel accessories.
If there's a craftsman, carpenter, techie, minimalist or even just a practical loved one in your life, consider Tuls this holiday season.
