Many EDCers have discovered the practical size and utility of Leatherman’s Skeletool CX, making it one of the most popular full-sized multi-tools over the past few years. Thanks to a functional design and lightweight build, it hits that sweet spot for anyone looking to EDC both a multi-tool and a competent folding knife. Despite its small size the Skeletool packs a punch. Thanks to its compact, skeletonized body it manages to weigh only 5 ounces for ease of carry. You can also access all the tools with one hand, making it perfect for the solo handyman.
Two key Skeletool features are its heavy-duty 154CM blade with a wharncliffe shape for precision cuts and a bit holder that extends its utility to an entire toolset. Its other tools include wire cutters, pliers, and a carabiner/bottle opener which lets you attach it to a pack or pop open a beverage rounding out its complement of everyday essentials. If you’ve yet to experience its utility, now is the perfect time to add one to your carry, available at the link below.
