"These ratchets are designed to be the benchmark for a fully functional ratchet at the lightest possible weight (for a portable moto tool kit). This one has all the fancy things, including a CNC-machined Ti-6AL-4V body, 3D-printed titanium switch, and titanium fasteners."

"On top of being light, this 72T ratchet also has the lowest backdrag (the friction in getting the tool to ratchet, lower is better) of any ratchet I’ve ever used. And yes, it’s even lower than the benchmarks of Koken Zeal and Nepros (the premium brand of KTC).

"Ok, it’s beautiful, amazingly light, corrosion-proof, and the smoothest of all. The catch? A tiny ratchet like this retails for US$233-US$248 (depending on coating). Also, I bought one of the last of the batch and so availability is currently nil.
