There is no such thing as having too many tools! But in addition to having everything you need, it’s good to know where your tools are. With a tool roll, you can easily store your most important hand tools and take them with you. We give you the 10 best leather tool rolls.
Choosing the perfect leather tool roll
At home, you might have endless space for your tools, but if you ever need to take your most essential tools somewhere, a tool roll is a handy option. Instead of a big heavy box, a tool roll is only for hand tools and you don’t get things mixed with nails, duct tape, oil and all other kinds of strange things that you throw in your tool box.
A tool roll is fast to roll up, they keep the tools safely in place and you can easily pack it on your motorbike or store it in your car. If you go for a model in leather, you will also get a classy looking tool roll that will fit nicely to your bike or classic car.
“Man is a tool-using animal. Without tools he is nothing, with tools he is all”
– Tomas Carlyle
A leather tool roll will develop a great-looking patina over time and instead of storing away your tools, the tool roll is something to display. If you’re looking for a nice present, a tool roll is also a great gift idea for the man who has everything – and loves his tools.
