I've always wondered if one of the gator sockets could take them off.
So a specialized universal socket

Im sure there's cheaper versions but I don't feel like looking
Might I recommend The Gator Grip. It's a socket that can work on many different sized bolts and it comes with the ratchet wrench. It's much smaller than carrying around an adjustable pliers like in the picture or an adjustable wrench or worse an entire small tool kit.
A ratchet and one small Gator Grip socket will easily fit into a back pocket and has way more torque and functionality than other adjustable bolt removal solutions.
Also it will be faster so there's less of a chance of being caught.
If you are looking for a socket set replacement for an emergency, I'd recommend a Gator Grip socket. They are surprisingly robust and actually work quite well. There are some limitations which you could find in a video review on youtube with minimal searching. If you need larger sizes, add the Gator Grip King Gator.

Another two tools that could come in handy if you are trying to replace wrenches are Knipex Plier Wrenches and Knipex Cobra adjustable wrenches...
If you need translations, just search and replace "wrenches" with "spanners"... ;)
I've never seen a heptagon bolt head. I'd try one of these...

and replace that bolt with a standard hex headed bolt during reassembly.
