The Skeletool is a cool indoor plus outdoor multi- tool from Leatherman’s. You might think what’s its use? Going by the looks, it for sure gives an impression to be made for shedding blood, meant to be used by gangsters. Wait a while, it is actually meant for…well, though conventional but…depends on the use, especially for those who don’t like carrying each individual tool, knowing they can be clubbed together and made effective. The Skeletool happens to be a great idea come to life.

Weight
The most important thing to acknowledge about the Skeletool is its weight. Weighing at 5 ounces, Leatherman claims this is the lightest full-size multi-tool ever (less than full-size being those tiny keychain models).
Looks so rigid and obdurate, the Skeletool feels almost comfortable to hold. The design is irregular, inclined slightly when it’s closed, and curvature to fit the shape of your hand when the handles are unfastened. There are tiny design updates crammed into every millimeter of its design, like the fact that the screwdriver isn’t hinged and tucked away, but in a fixed position, ready to be used as soon as you open the tool. And the extra double-sided bit fits into the handle, giving you a total of four bit sizes (two flathead and two Phillips).
