highly recommended

Light and basic

The Skeletool is small, compact and light. I have found it easy to carry. It has a super comfortable blade, what I use most often. The pliers is precise enough to pull a fingernail; I have often had pliers that do not close tightly at the tip, but this one does. I like the screwdriver set, you can get a "pistol grip" and really apply some force. This is a very good, no nonsense, tool and I highly recommend it.

The most useful multitool yet!

This is by far the most useful multitool I've ever owned. It has just what most people need on a daily basis, and is consequently much lighter than the others. Buy the other ones if you really need a corkscrew, leather punch, wood saw, toothpick, etc.
I chose the CX version mainly because of its serrated edge blade, and the tungsten coating is nice looking as well, although I'm sure it will wear off with use, as do most coatings.
You can save a bit of cash if you can do without the serrated blade and fancy coating. Either way, you can be sure you'll use and love this multitool.

indispensible companion

clips right to my pocket. I never even feel its there. The knife is sharp as all get out. The needlenose pliers and interchangeable scredriver attachment get used all the time. The whole thing looks cool, is solidly built and well designed. I will never be without this thing again. My only issue, and its a minor one, is that sometimes the knife can be hard to get out. I think that may be due to lint or dirt buildup. I just have to use extra pressure every now and then and then I spray it with an air can.

minimalist tool that gets it done.

I had been in search of a new Leatherman tool for a couple of weeks when I encountered the Skeletool. I liked the tool as soon as I saw it. I was wanting a smaller Leatherman than my Surge and this was it. The skeletool has just enough functionality for my own needs and is lightweight. The blade is partially serated and is sharp as a razor. The pliers work well and the easy to deploy screw driver is excellent. For those that only need the basics this is the one for you. I like this tool and am glad I found it. The pliers are still on the tight side but that is normal for Leatherman. The only thing I would complain about is the tool does not come with a sheath of any kind. I ended up using an old sheath I had from a previous Leatherman.
