Quality


It feel really good in the hand and is well made.


They work great and are strong steel.


The pocket clip hasn’t gotten caught on anything and the screwdriver bit never falls out.


Now maybe when they create these tools they just don’t wipe them all the way off because the pliers didn’t have any other mark ...  Read More

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.

    I dont need the pliers to be that strong

    Knots require very little force and pulling out stubborn stakes doesnt require an inordinate amount of force either
