The full sentence is:

何なにもかも手てにした気きでいたんだ

For now I think 何もかも手にした comes from 何もかも手にする 'to obtain just about everything / almost everything' but I can't understand the purpose of the rest and how it changes the meaning of the phrase.

  'Anything and everything' was one of the two definitions that Jisho.org provided. The other one was 'Just about everything' which did more sense in the context.

  hee.. 何もかも means すべて, 全部... So "just about everything" "almost everything" can also mean すべて?

  So It would correct to say that 何もかも手にした means "I've got everything"? if that's correct how does 気でいたんだ change the sentence's meaning?

～～した気でいる means "to (keep/stay) think/imagine/feel/(ing) that one did~~". (≂ ～～したつもりでいる) (cf. 「～～した気になる」 "to think/feel/imagine one did~~", 「～～のつもりでいる」 "to fancy oneself as~~")

何もかも手にする means "to gain/obtain (anything and) everything".

So 何もかも手にした気でいたんだ literally means "I thought/imagined that I had obtained everything."
