Leatherman 830850 Skeletool CX Multitool


Leatherman packs the full-size Skeletool with the tools you’re likely to use most often.

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.

Key Tech Specs:

  • Length: 4 inches/10 cm closed
  • Weight: 5 ounces/142 grams
  • Materials: Stainless steel, Tungsten DLC coating, 154CM, carbon fiber (handle scale)
  • Included Bits: Phillips #1 and #2, Screwdriver 3/16-inch and 1/4-inch


Leatherman makes a full range of complementary accessories and add-ons for this and other Leatherman products.

Optional Accessories (not included)

From new belt sheaths to t-shirts and caps, genuine Leatherman accessories are durable, fun and show that you’re a part of Leatherman World. With such a wide variety available, it’s easy to find just the add-on that’s right for you.

Warranty
All Leatherman products are covered by a 25-year limited warranty. If within 25 years from the purchase date of your genuine Leatherman tool you find any defect in material or workmanship, you can count on the manufacturer to make it right with fast warranty service. To obtain warranty service, return your tool to Leatherman Tool Group. Depending on the tool defect, they will decide whether to repair your tool or replace it with a product of equal or greater value. No variations, upgrades or refunds are offered.

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.

Customer Review: a horrible buying experience, followed by a disappointing product.
Caveat, emptor! I placed my order on November 2, 2007 and finally received the product on March 24, 2008. Spend a moment with your calendar and allow that to fully sink in. When it finally arrived, I found that the product is poorly engineered bordering on defective. The screwdriver bits which are supposed to fit into the bit driver and the reserve pocket in the handle simply fall out and are lost. You are left with a pair of pliers and a knife, for which you paid a great deal and waited months to get. I wholeheartedly reverse-recommend this product. I would send it back to the factory for repair if I had any faith in the design or in the abyssmal customer service of the manufacturer. They would in all likelihood give me a replacement of equal quality, and make me wait for it a very long time, and that’s a problem. I wonder what happened to the Leatherman company. They used to be great, but not, it would seem, anymore. This product is good looking. That’s about all I can say for it. Fulfillment is lacking, quality is poor, and you’ll wait a very, very long time before it arrives and you find out you’re totally disappointed. Click elsewhere. And if you are asking yourself if I’m all wet, see the amazon forum below for detail. I was a true believer in Leatherman products for over a decade, but I will never buy from them again. I’m too disgusted even to deal with the ordeal of sending it back. If I had to guess, the Skeletool will occupy a spot in a little-used drawer until I have it in me to accept that my patience and good faith were for naught, my time and money and optimism wasted, and throw it in the trash. The Skeletool photo you’re salivating over is likely to be the only time you feel truly pleased with it. Right click the photo, hit Save As, and take your money elsewhere.

Customer Review: Very Pleased with Skeletool
I just recieved my skeletool after months of waiting (like many of you) and I believe that it was well worth the wait. It is evident that leatherman did indeed use the extra time to make sure that quality was up to par. The skeletool is wonderful. The design is stunning, the craftsmanship excellent, which is what has become expected from leatherman, and the knife seems very sharp and durable. Others have mentioned the knife being “stiff” and while it is a bit, I wouldn’t be upset if it never loosened up, I don’t believe that it is too bad and can still flip it open with one hand easily. The skeletool feels amazing in your hand, light but solid and sturdy. I can’t even tell when its hooked to my belt its so light. Oh and also, the bottle opener works wonderfully! I most certainly recommend it to others, despite the long waiting list and increasing price.
