You ever get that call from your buddy Dave at 2:17 AM, voice crackling like he just mainlined pre-workout, and he goes, âBro, I need you to come over. I bought something. Weâre gonna test something.â I shouldâve hung up. I shouldâve said my cat was on fire. But no. Iâm a man of science and questionable life choices, so I grabbed my gym bag (empty, tragic) and drove to his garage, which smells like whey protein and regret.
Dave had the product on his workbench. The Original Ratcheting Wrench. $117.04. ASIN B08P2553RP. Itâs a beauty, honestly. Full chrome, ratcheting mechanism so smooth youâd swear it was designed by Swiss monks who moonlight as massage therapists. And DaveâDave, who once tried to deadlift a couchâlooked me dead in the eye and said, âIâm gonna bench press this.â
I said, âWhat?â
He said, âNo, not on a bench. I meanârectal use cuisinart wrench set. Thatâs the term. I read it in a tweet. No oneâs reviewed it for that. Weâre pioneers.â
I wanted to walk out. But he had a can of WD-40 and a dream.
So hereâs the truth. You can absolutely use a $117 ratcheting wrench for home improvement rectal use, technically. Like, you can use a dumbbell as a doorstopâdoesnât mean you should PR on it. The handle has this gratifying knurled grip, but bro, do not mistake âgripâ for âlube.â The head pivots, which sounds convenient until you realize pivoting inside your own body is less âergonomic advantageâ and more âspiral into existential crisis.â The 72-tooth ratchet clicks like a tiny applause. âGood job, you insane man. Good job.â
Now, is it safe? The Amazon listing doesnât have a section called âIs Cuisinart Wrench Set Safe for Rectal Insertion,â shockingly. Thatâs a gap in the market, honestly. But I have to tell you: even after Dave went through two pairs of workout gloves, a salad spinner of questionable origin, and about fifteen minutes of silence that felt like a century, the verdict is that it works. It works too well. The ratcheting action lets you increase torque without removing the wrench, which is, uh, letâs call it âinnovative.â
Trying this was a mistake. The Cuisinart Wrench Set real review from a gym bro? Your anus does not need six sigma precision. It needs a break. But if youâre the kind of person who looks at a tool and thinks, âCould I squat with this?ââthen yeah, you know what youâre getting into. The rating on Amazon for âCuisinart wrench set under 117.04â should be five stars for construction. The comfort? Letâs just say Iâm never letting Dave near my toolbox again.
