Porsche swerves to the power tool realm with P'7911 Multihammer

We've noticed that the folks at Porsche Design have been branching out to new endeavors of late, but this joint venture takes brand extension to an entirely new level. The group has apparently partnered with Germany's Metabo to unveil the Multihammer P'7911 power drill, which "combines all the essential functions of a drill with the power of a pneumatic hammer," sports a carbon fiber / aluminum housing, and includes an impeccably balanced grip that makes this bad boy easier to handle. The 705-watt device has no problem with scratches here and there from drilling through concrete, stone, wood, and steel, and the five different function settings allow you to tweak the tool for the job at hand. No word just yet regarding the (presumably lofty) price, but be sure to leap on through to see this luxury power tool hard at work.

ummm...wtf? lol

I don't think I know one construction worker in the world that would buy that...

It is obviously aimed at the balding rich guy who suddenly needs to feel like a man and fill up his gleaming new stainless toolchest with some gear he will never ever touch.

Hahaah, that is exactly what I was thinking. Power tools shouldn't dabble in finesse and beauty. They should be badass, not "Pretty."

Metabo makes good tools.

But its still just another rotary hammer.

You should have gotten the Porsche Design Colonoscopy Kit. It comes with special tubing to help prevent irritation.


Unless this thing will cost

Deutschland pwnage design! Too bad the didn't group up with HILTI, they make the REAL badass rotary hammers. The basic HILTI version costs 2000€.

[Greg @ Jun 13th 2007 10:23PM]

You exaggerate. The Hilti TE 2-A is a snip at $600 at Home Depot, nowhere near 2000€.

If you show up on the jobsite with that thing, they will instantly think you are the Gay Construction Worker from the Village People..

So, it's a regular hammer-drill with a fancy case?
