Price
Spread out over 8 years, that's cost me about 83 cents a month to own and operate.
I also unfortunately have misplaced mine before and didn't hesitate to pay full price for a new one as i was tired of missing it.
For me, it was worth the ~$80 i spent on it.
I had to hammer the through-pin to tighten the spring, which for $80 is a little less than impressive.
Shipping
The company i purchased this from delivered exactly what i wanted.
Competitiveness
Skeletool cx really fits my particular most frequent needs better than other popular multitools.
I've had a competing brand multitool for aeons, and it's a superb piece of hardware.
