Hammer + ratchet in one. Perhaps not the single greatest idea to emerge from the multitool craze.

Well, having made a hench...

I can't lambast it too much although I'll admit there aren't a lot of uses for such a device.

Good point, but I believe your hench has no moving parts. To be fair, I have smacked stuff with a wrench, and a ratchet, and a variety of other tools not intended for smacking purposes, and I will likely continue to do so, each time explaining to myself why, this time, it was justified. But the notion of such a product existing for purchase amazes me.
