An integrated tool system that includes various interchangeable implements and attachments to provide functionality of pliers, wrenches, hammers, ratchets and screwdrivers. Many of the attachments are secured to rectangular jaws at the upper portion of the device. The lower portion of the device includes an ratcheting gear for accepting sockets, socket adaptors, ratchet extensions and so forth. The upper and lower portions are separable to reveal a receiver for hexes that is stored within the handle, thereby facilitating screwdriving and the like.
