Introducing the Brand New Skeletool CX from Leatherman
Get back to basics — the very cool basics — with Leatherman's Skeletool CX. Today’s outdoor enthusiasts want to keep weight and volume to a minimum without sacrificing quality and true functionality, and that's what the Skeletool is all about. Many multitools have multiple options, but they’re often heavier — and they're loaded with more features than most people actually need on a regular basis. Conversely, pocket knives are light and streamlined, but they render themselves useless when the task calls for a more versatile tool. Enter the new Skeletool platform, offering minimal weight, compact size and endless capabilities.
Key User Features
The Skeletool CX has a large knife blade that can be accessed while the tool is closed; to open it, just place your thumb in the thumbhole at the base of the blade and rotate it out until it's fully extended — which will engage the safety lock. This locking mechanism is noted with a padlock symbol on the tool. To unlock the blade, press the locking mechanism towards the handle until the blade slides past the lock.
Equipped with a universal bit driver, the Skeletool offers real utility options like no other multitool. To change the tool bits, simply unfold the tool and remove the bit from the bit driver — and pop it out. And replacing bits is just as easy. Just press a new one into position and you're good to go. There's even a spare bit located in the handle side opposite the knife blade. This tool includes the following bits: Phillips #1 and #2, screwdriver 3/16-inch and 1/4-inch.
In the plier jaws you'll find a hard-wire cutter and a regular wire cutter. The regular wire cutter is great for softer grades of wire, but the hard-wire cutter is excellent for heavier jobs — like cutting and bending fishhooks.
Multitool Capabilities:
The Skeletool keeps it simple — and light, and compact, and easy to transport. Why waste time with pointless, heavy add-ons when all the basics are right at your fingertips? With its open hardware, skeletal design and hardy appearance, the Skeletool boasts a premium stainless steel blade, pliers, a universal bit driver, and a carabiner/bottle opener ... and that's it.

The Leatherman Tool Group and its History of Quality
In 1975, Leatherman Tool Group founder Tim Leatherman was inspired by leaky pipes and a cranky car on a budget trip to Europe — and thus the idea for his first pocket survival tool was conceived. Since then, Leatherman has become an internationally recognized company with hundreds of employees and a wide variety of durable, versatile, stylish products. Created with bold designs and truly rugged construction, Leatherman products are a perfect addition for tool kits, emergency sets, and glove compartments everywhere.

- 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… More reviews
- Dangerous beauty - beware!
- As a designer of utilitarian items, I became enamored with the Leatherman Skeletool CX after viewing the pre-release photos, and purchased one shortly after they became available. Although visually very appealing, the Skeletool CX falls short in functionality - the pliers jaws are not spring-loaded and must be opened manually, and it is a chore (albeit a minor one, to switch from the Phillips… More reviews
- Transformer
- This tool comes right out of the movie "Transformers". Looks cool, nice carbon fiber insert, sharp blade and practical size. The only thing it's missing is a good sheath, which in my opinion, should be included. More reviews
- My favorite multi-tool ever
- I have had four previous multitools over the years. The Skeletool CX puts them all to shame. Leatherman has done a great job of selecting the tools that you would need the most in order to save size and weight. I have a Wave and it's so heavy that it is uncomfortable to wear and I find myself not missing the myriad of tools it had.… More reviews

- As an ex-avid knife collector, the Leatherman Skeletool dragged me back into my bad knife purchasing habit. Absolutely one of the best EDC knives I've ever owned. Perfect size and function.… More reviews
