    yer barn door is open. Good video, looking at a skeletool for an edc, never had a multitool in my edc before. Good to know it's good after many years.

    Nice review. I like the CX, light and simple, but I keep falling back to Wave, which I prefer for most of my EDC use. Just the right mix of tools/blades for my use.

  • @cwsmith17
    @cwsmith17 4 роки тому +2

    The Wave, Surge and Skeletool are the GOAT multitools. The Skeletool is amazing. I'v carried one for 9 years. Their updated model is even better.

  • @faethe000
    @faethe000 3 роки тому +4

    They should come out with a Skeletool 2 that has the Surge's scissors opposite the blade. There's room and it would make this tool a real contender to replace swiss army knives.

    It's a beautiful knife in hand. I had a look, it's made of quite descent steel for a multi tool. I just couldn't gel with it because it felt aggressive in hand, I enjoy a more 'designer' or 'plush' experience like Wood SAK.

    According to leatherman website the cx and the regular stainless skeletol weigh the same which makes no nense because the cx appears to have a carbon handle

      Appears is the key word. It's just a carbon fiber piece over steel.

    Great video. I’m in Australia too and the price has definitely gone up again. Online they are around $175-$200.

      You can buy a t-shank saw and modify it to fit the bit driver. For example the saw and file kit for the Surge. Not a 100% fit after the mods, but it works!

    The liner lock has worn out significantly. If you look at 3:17, you'll see the contact point of this liner lock has moved all the way to the side. I always wonder why Leatherman doesn't apply a lock back for such a top-of-the-line tool.

    Deluxe Tinker SAK is lighter, more tools and 1/2 the price - I must be missing something .. probs "trend" lol
    Carabiner comes in handy for plier opening fishing but for all round use prefer a full flat ground tapering blade with better fit n finish, more tools, easy cleaning and pocketability.
