  • The prefect for me "around town" EDC
*Update* I have owned the tool for a couple of years now, if you need a lightweight (for a multi-tool) EDC option with more than just a blade I would recommend no other. I have used it extensively for standard EDC tasks and it has been incredibly useful, so useful in fact I rarely carry other pocket knives/tools. I do think it would be possible to break this tool if used for heavy duty purposes but that is not what it is for. EDC tasks are simple, drive a screw, tighten a bolt, open a bottle, change the battery in your kids toy, open a package, cut open a box or break a box down, etc. If your looking for a practical EDC tool for light to medium duty I would recommend no other. This is an excellent tool and has taken over as my primary EDC when in town. I am writing this after carrying the tool for over 6 months so I feel I have been able to get a pretty good impression of the skeletool and I am confident it will be clipped to my pocket regularly for quite some time. I help manage the apartment building I live in and am responsible for small repairs and the like. When I am carrying this I take far fewer trips to the toolbox as I am able to tighten up screws, nuts, etc. on the spot. I have also used the knife fairly often to open packaging, break down small boxes, and shave plastic or wood off the odd item, the 154CM steel blade holds a great edge and does not have a spec of rust on it. I have used the pliers more frequently than I perhaps expected for anything from repairing small items to grabbing stuff just out of my reach. The pocket clip is positive and has only been taken out of my pocket once by a freak occurrence where a loop of cord slipped along my leg at just the right angle to snatch it away by catching the pocket clip (which was immediately noticeable). The weight is negligible and while I have not put them on a scale it feels less than a few pocket knives I own and no greater than the average pocket carry knife I have owned over the years. Overall I am impressed, while no one tool on the skeletool is better than a job specific single tool you may have in your toolbox/knife collection they all get you pretty close. I have really been surprised at the utility created by keeping the skeletool, a small pocket flashlight, and a bottle of superglue handy in the house. I am very pleased, I have used it more than other EDC knives I have owned and it looks damn near new. If the unlikely happens and I were to loose or destroy it I am sure I would buy another. ... show more

  • Perfect EDC Multi-Tool
Color: Onyx Black
I’ve been carrying the Skeletool CX for a few months now, and honestly, it’s become my go-to EDC. The build quality is exactly what you’d expect from Leatherman—solid, precise, and no rattles or loose joints. What I love most is that it’s just enough tool without being bulky. The knife is razor-sharp right out of the box, and the pliers feel sturdy enough to handle real work. Lightweight, sharp, and tough. The Skeletool CX has all the essentials—knife, pliers, screwdriver—without the bulk. Feels solid, looks great, and fits in your pocket like it belongs there. Worth it if you want quality over quantity. ... show more

  • Perfect EDC!
I used to carry a Leatherman around with me all the time. But after a bad car accident, paralyzation, and a lot of physical therapy; I hadn't carried one in a long time. I decided it was time to start again, so I purchased the biggest roughest one I found from Leatherman, the Surge. Plus all of the add-ons possible. And that thing was fun. A whole toolbox on my belt. Came in handy at work (telcom engineer). But after a while, I realized I don't use it as often as I remember, and that Surge (with all the add-ons) is surprisingly heavy! Plus, it just has too many tools on it that I'm never going to use. So I sat down and thought about it: Which tools on my Leatherman do I really ever use? Turned out, there was only three: Knife, Pliers, Screwdriver. That's about it. So I did some looking around, and came across this specific model of SkeleTool (as there are many variations that have different tools on them). This one literally only has the three tools I wanted! (I'm not counting the bottle opener. ANYTHING is a bottle opener if you're inventive enough.) And it's SO MUCH lighter! I'm fairly certain that the "carbon fiber" parts are just a gimmick (so they can call it "space age" and "lighter than steel"), but they don't add any bulk or take away from the tool at all, so no loss there. I'm not sure if the tool is incredibly light for how strong it is, or if it's incredibly strong for how light it is; both, I guess. But it is incredibly well designed and made. It is much lighter in hand than it looks, yet is very sturdy and strong. The jaws of the pliers are smaller than the full-sized Surge, but still big enough to get the job done. Because it's so light, I decided to go ahead and toss some add-ons in for it. So I got the belt pouch, and stocked it with the double flat-bit set, and the bit extender. That way I've got all of the most used bit drivers. (Which can be customized if you like. Also, if you don't get the bit set, the multitool itself comes with two bits, one in the driver, and one stored in the handle; so both bits are always with the tool.) I also tossed some Band-Aids in the pouch as well (as I've learned from experience. By the way guys, it's not a bad idea to keep a few Band-Aids in your wallet.) I am happier with my SkeleTool purchase than any other multitool I've ever owned (and I've owned quite a few in my time, across several brands). It is my EDC tool, and is always on my belt. I'd buy another one without a second thought if I could just come up with a reason to need a second one. UPDATE (May, 2025): I have carried the Skeletool on my belt everyday for several years now. And it gets used almost every single day. It's a genuine rarity when a whole day goes by and I didn't whip out my Skeletool for something. Everything is still working perfectly, and the tool is showing no signs of wear or tear. I genuinely expected it to be fairly worn down after this much use, but the tool could be cleaned up a bit, and it could pass as a brand new unit; it's *that* well made. I keep fighting the urge to buy another, but this one is in perfect order, so I have no reason to spend the money. Leatherman quality is second to none. I can whole-heartedly recommend this product to everyone. Happy shopping, all! ... show more
