  • Our take on the Leatherman 830849 Skeletool Multi-Tool Stainless Steel

    The Skeletool CX is a stripped-down full-size multi-tool built around a 154CM combo blade, pliers, a bit driver and a carabiner/bottle opener, with a pocket clip instead of a sheath. At about 5 oz it sits between a pocket knife and a traditional multi-tool, which is the point: fewer tools, less bulk. It suits hikers, climbers and everyday carriers who want pliers and a real blade without a brick in the pocket. Against a Wave or Charge it gives up scissors, a saw and a file; against a plain folder it adds pliers and drivers. Owners like the one-hand blade and the clip, and most complaints center on the bit driver and the lack of extra tools.

    What reviewers say

    Owners treat the Skeletool CX as a light, well-made compromise: a real blade and pliers that disappear in a pocket. Praise centers on weight, the clip and the one-hand blade; criticism lands on the limited tool set and the bit driver.

    What people mention
    • WeightPraisedOwners say it carries like a pocket knife and is easy to forget until needed.
    • BladePraisedThe 154CM blade is described as sharp, durable and easy to open with one hand.
    • Carry clipPraisedThe clip and carabiner are called the reason people actually carry it daily.
    • Tool setCriticisedReviewers miss scissors, a saw and a file that fuller multi-tools include.
    • Bit driverMixedUseful for screws, but owners find it holds one bit and can be awkward to use.
    • Handle comfortCriticisedSome say the slim handles dig in when squeezing the pliers hard.

    About the Leatherman 830849 Skeletool Multi-Tool Stainless Steel

    Questions and answers

    Is the Skeletool CX worth it over a plain pocket knife?
    If you regularly need pliers or a screwdriver, yes. It adds those to a one-hand blade at close to pocket-knife weight. If you only cut things, a folder is simpler.
    How does it compare with the Leatherman Wave?
    The Wave is heavier and adds scissors, a saw and a file. The Skeletool CX is lighter and slimmer, with only the core tools. Pick the Wave for variety, the Skeletool for carry.
    What blade steel does it use?
    A 154CM stainless combo blade with a plain edge and a serrated section. 154CM holds an edge better than the 420HC on the standard Skeletool.
    Does it come with a sheath?
    No. It is designed to clip to a pocket, belt or pack, and the carabiner doubles as a bottle opener.
    What bits does the bit driver take?
    It uses Leatherman flat bits, and the tool holds one at a time. Extra bits are carried separately.
    Is it legal to carry most places?
    The blade locks open and is about 2.6 inches, which is fine in many places but restricted in some cities and countries. Check local knife rules.
    Where is the Leatherman 830849 Skeletool Multi-Tool Stainless Steel cheapest?
    At Fisherman's marine, for $99.95, as of our latest check.
