 Multi-tool Lust July 16, 2008
Lobo Y Leon (Nashvill, TN)
I had my eye on the Skeletool CX for some time. I'm one of those pocket knife/flashlight fetishist and this design was too cool for me not to have. Once I had the multi-tool in my hand, I was immediately impressed. Very light, machined to the n-th degree, classic Leatherman blade honed to a scalpels edge and the carbon fiber elements had me open eyed like a kid. My only sense of disappointment had to do with the pliers. I realize the tool was designed to be ultra compact & lightweight but the size & gripping surface of the jaws seemed almost on the toyish size. Regretfully, my Skeletool never made it home from it's inaugural run on a recent out of town install so I never truly had a chance to put it to the test. Not pointing fingers at the TSA but I know it went into my bag before catching my flight home & it wasn't there when I arrived. Somebody else must've thought it was as cool as me.
Pretty awesome tool! July 16, 2008

Really awesome tool! I love the feel of it, and the lack of weight to it. I just wish that they hadn't dropped the function of the saw. Also, there's no can opener.
Lost my bits July 19, 2008
T. Reichart (USA)
This item is so close to perfect. I use the carabeaner to attach it to my belt loop or just clip it to the band on my shorts. Very light weight. Great knife with one handed opening and closing.
FLAW!: The bits don't stay in place. I lost 3 bits in a week so I just saudered the #2 phillips in place since I use it the most. If the bit holders would have worked, this would be the perfect light weight knife/pliers/driver.
Not Lefty friendly, but still a great tool. July 20, 2008

I just wanted to note that, because the thumb hole is hidden behind the Leatherman, the knife on this tool cannot be folded out with your left hand only.
Having said that, it is still a great tool that I would highly recommend. It has the tools you will actually use in a multi-tool, and got rid of all the ones you don't.
 Excellent multitool July 21, 2008
Ross Fogleman III (Sarasota, Florida)
I had been looking for a new Leatherman to replace my old original, which I lost recently. I never used all of the tools, and was looking for something basic but just as versatile. The Skeletool CX is perfect for my lifestyle. I especially like the large, locking blade and the comfortable handle in all configurations. The clips make it easy to carry and not lose. This is a winner!
