Tool Pouch & Crafting Kit

Jump to navigation Jump to search

Crafting by claw alone produces inferior results. With this kit, you can craft finer, sharper, and deadlier tools... if that is your wish.

The Tool Pouch and the Crafting Kit are equipment items in Hollow Knight: Silksong used by Hornet. The Tool Pouch holds her Tools and  Shell Shards, and she uses her Crafting Kit to craft stronger Tools.

Function

The Tool Pouch and the Crafting Kit can be upgraded separately up to four times. Each of these upgrades offer different improvements to Hornet's Tools.

Tool Pouch

Tool Pouch upgrades increase the maximum capacity of Shell Shards by  100, starting with a capacity of  400, up to amaximum of  800.

Tool Pouches also increase the maximum capacity of Red ToolRed Tools. The increase per pouch varies by Tool and by upgrade, generally being around 25%, with the final upgrade always allowing double the base amount. This effect does not apply to the Rosary Cannon, as its maximum capacity cannot be increased, and the Needle Phial, which has infinite uses.

Repairing any Tool at a bench, except for Rosary Cannon and Flea Brew, costs  40 divided by the Tool's base capacity.

Using the Shell Satchel, the maximum capacity of Tools can be increased even further depending on the upgrade level.
