Overview & First Impressions
The V2.7 is the smallest Double Wing lynchNW has put out, and that is the whole point. It runs 85mm long, 4mm thick, and weighs 21.7 grams, which puts it closer to a keychain tool than the pocket crowbars some brands sell. Fully machined 6AL-4V titanium, hand finished, with a matching titanium clip. The blue anodizing is the loud part; the geometry is the part that earns its keep.
Materials & Construction
6AL-4V is the titanium you want in a bar - it takes a bend and springs back instead of cracking. The tip is machined thin enough to slide under a laptop hinge or a paint can lid, and the wing shoulders are radiused so they do not chew your palm when you lean on them. This is a pry bar first and a fidget toy second, though the CNC Wing engraving on the front does invite thumb time.
Design & Details
Two details stand out after a week in a pocket. The pocket clip is titanium and tensioned properly, so the tool rides deep and does not spin. The opposite face carries the USA flag with the LynchNW mark, engraved rather than printed, so it will not rub off. At 4mm thick the bar still slots behind a phone case without drama.
Real-World Use
I used mine on a stuck door latch plate, a stubborn bottle cap and a USB-C port that needed coaxing. Restoring a rivet on a leather sheath worked too. It is not a replacement for the heavy titanium bars people keep in a bag, but the weight disappears and you actually carry it. That is the honest test of any pry bar.
Ownership Notes
Anodized titanium will scuff where you pry, and blue shows it. Treat the first marks as patina rather than damage, or buy the sand blast version if you want a finish that hides wear. Wipe the pivot area dry after wet work and the color will stay crisp for years. Collectors who already chase anodized EDC knives will recognize the finish immediately. If you also carry one of the folding knives from a lynchNW clip collaboration, keep them in separate pockets so the anodized bar does not get chewed up by a steel clip. Compared with a traditional utility knife, the trade is obvious: you give up a replaceable blade and get a lever that will not snap off in a hinge. Every pry bar we stock at EdcMall is measured against one question, which is whether it earns the pocket space it takes up.
Who Is This For?
Anyone who has ever snapped a tip off a good blade opening a paint tin will get the appeal. It suits office carry, camera bags, bike tool rolls and anyone who travels light. If you want one tool for a workshop, size up. If you want something you will still have on you at 3pm, this is the one.
Final Verdict
Small, light, well finished, and priced like a tool rather than jewelry. The blue anodizing looks better in person than in photos, and the machining is clean where it matters. Buy it if you want a pry bar you will genuinely carry every day.
