What ever reason you use for justifying your pocket multi-tool doesn’t really matter, everyone from IT nerds, to hard core mountain climbers tend to have a favorite they carry. The main problem, for me anyway’s, was the bulk and weight of the pocket tool. I was always happy to have the tool when I needed it… but didn’t like feeling like I had a brick in my pocket.
Leatherman’s latest tool the Skeletool solves this problem, it is an ultra-light survival tool that includes the following:
- Straight/Serrated Blade Knife
- Full size pliers
- Wire cutters
- Interchangeable screwdriver
- Carabiner Clip
- Bottle opener
The Leatherman Skeletool comes in a two versions;
- Skeletool – $46 at Amazon
- Skeletool CX – $59 at Amazon (More carbon fiber instead of steel)
