Just a quick update. My 3rencho came in the mail today and it works great. It has more than enough grip for torque and no way will I need to stand on this thing to get something tight. I nearly have as much leverage as the crescent wrench itself.
The 3wrencho will now replace the tire lever and crescent wrench.

I have it, I like it. I've used it a few times as both a lever and as a wrench. the flat side can make it awkard sometimes to pack, but it is ace for leverage.
Well I don't have this exact one, mine is just metal, no black covering.

I use this. It attaches to your frame so you don't have to worry about actually carrying it or putting in a pouch.
15mm wrench. No Tire lever though, but it does have a bottle opener. lol

But you gotta worry about somebody stealing it! I wouldn't leave my bike locked up with that on it.

That eightinch thing looks aweful. First, having a closed/open wrench is far more useful for tightening down axle nuts and pedals rather than just the fixed socket that that thing has. Second, a bottle-opener is a ridiculous addition because nobody is going to rummage through their pack or walk out to their bike for a big tool to crack open a cold one. You would grab anything else, a lighter, a knife, the big car key, whatever.
Most of these "fixie toolz" are just ridiculous. They cram bookoo form into very little function.
