It is almost as if we are trying to use the wrong tool for something. You could probably take that Philips head screw out with a knife.

I am close to completing my Philips Head Screwdriver Knife. It is not perfect right now but VCs get excited when they see the screw is out and all I had was a knife.

The tip of the knife gets bent a little bit but we are now making it from titanium and and we hired a lot of researchers and they designed this nano-scale grating at the knife tip so that it increases the friction at the interface it makes with the screw.

We are 500M into this venture but results are promising.
