not a new design. I have one of these my Grandfather gave me about 1966. it was not new then so I think it may have been made in the early 60's.
OH, no rubber handle and not metric, so maybe this qualifies as a new design.

They’re good for working on bicycles but the heads are too large to allow the socket to reach most nuts and bolts on cars. Not a fan.
 
I don't like "universal tools" in general, but it might have it's place. Maybe your wife's tool box, in your bicycle repair kit like 68gtx said, or anywhere you can't carry much size/weight. Tiger wrench, universal screwdriver & a pair of vise grips......done....full tool set.

These things are like those spark plugs with multiple side electrodes. Every so many years another company comes up with another version.
 
well I've got one coming ,I think of it as maybe the best reserve spanner. you know the other one behind all the **** hanging to whatever while you undo this side of it
 
I don’t mind some of those fancy oddball tools (like the ones that craftsman used to come out with around Christmas time). This time though, I’m sitting here trying to think of a single bolt that I’ve ever tightened on my Belvedere that that thing could reach.

Front header flange bolt, drivers side. Oh, and one of the alternator bolts.
 
I might get one to put behind the driver seat...apparently a tyre lever is considered a weapon in that spot. At least a box wrench can be explained away as a tool for the car. :D Apart from that, I'll stick with regular tools for working on my cars thanks.
