Leatherman Skeletool.

I’m obsessed, this thing lives on my belt every single day! The Leatherman Skeletool is hands-down the best EDC multitool I’ve ever owned. It’s insanely light (only 5 oz), so I forget it’s even there until I need it, then it saves me a trip back to the toolbox 20 times a day. The blade is razor-sharp out of the box, locks up solid, and opens one-handed in seconds. Pliers are surprisingly strong for the size; I’ve pulled nails, twisted wire, and crimped hoses with zero flex. I added the bit driver kit and the 40+ bit set, and honestly, 98 % of the time this + a small screwdriver is the only “tool” I ever need around the house, garage, or on the job site. It’s not meant for heavy repetitive work (that’s what full-size tools are for), but for quick fixes, adjustments, and everyday carry? Absolutely perfect. Build quality is classic Leatherman: bombproof, gorgeous, and the pocket clip is the best in the business. Worth every penny. If you’re on the fence, just get it. You’ll wonder how you lived without it! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This is the very best multi tool! I appreciate that it's lightweight, has a pocket clip and doesn't have a lot of tools I'll never use. I had my original one for at least 10 years and the only reason for replacing it is I broke one of the jaws on the pliers. Totally my fault, not the Leatherman.

I have had this style for years but lost my last one on the golf course so I got another. The best Leatherman for me simple and the right tools I need.

I own four multi-tools, and this is the best of the bunch. 4 ¼” closed, 6 ¾” open, 1 ¼” wide, 5 oz. Easy-opening, locking, 2.6” knife blade with partial serration, two screwdrivers, two Phillips heads, bottle opener, needlenose pliers, pliers, wire cutter. Comes with a pocket clip which I don’t use as I bought a belt case for it. I find most multi-tools are too large. This is smaller and more usable. Thank goodness the Skeletool does not have a spring keeping the pliers open! Gerber and NexTool could learn a lesson here! Thank goodness when open, the pliers handles are a short, comfortable distance apart. Gerber and NexTool could learn a lesson here! The Skeletool is a winner, and is the best multi-tool I own. Note to Leatherman: Now you just need to make a version that is < 3 inches closed, < 4 oz. You can sacrifice the larger screwdriver and Phillips-heads to reduce the weight.

I managed to lose my old Leatherman, and can't live without one. This one lacks the scissors, file, and can opener that the old one had, but they were useless anyway. The screwdriver setup (with interchangeable heads) is much stronger than the old fold-out screwdrivers, and since they were harder to unfold than is swapping out the heads on the new one, a definite plus for the skeletool. The only thing I miss is that the old model had spring-opening pliers, which this does not, but that is not much of an issue. I like the caribiner/bottle opener, making it easy to attach the tool to a belt loop (the pocket clip is less useful, but can be removed), plus, it does open bottles.
