Anyone seen these.
I like it,just got a Charge Ti and think it is a little to bulky.This one looks perfect.No sheath the fiddle with,bit storage on the tool and all features needed.

That looks awesome. I carry a old Leatherman Sideclip model as it is light and small. I have a Charge TI, but never use it, due to size and weight. I will check this new model out.

have been carrying a core on my belt and a surge in my vest...

Might just have to see if my local's getting any of these in now, something a bit lighter for my bag (currently a juice in there)

That's pretty **** nifty, I don't see a price?

here's a short review by popular mechanics
http://www.popularmechanics.com/blogs/h ... 21370.html

"Skeletool won’t be available until November. And it’s not exactly cheap, at $72 for the standard version and $96 for the Skeletool CX, which has carbon-fiber handles."

*edit*
only the CX comes with 154CM

I just got my Charge TTI today and it is a nicer version of the LM wave. I like it better though.

Maybe I'm the only one who'd rather have a number of useful tools available instead of a limited number...I use the pliars, the multiple sizes of screwdrivers, the scissors, the saw, and file on my leatherman wave on a regular basis, and the blades occasionally. I can't recall having ever used the can/bottle opener on it. I've never even noticed the weight of the wave - i carry it on my belt in a sheath at all times.

Accessability of the tools on a wave could be a bit better, but I am not complaining really. For the price, the wave or charge tti seems a better tool overall. If I had never used the super tool or wave, then this new one might have been more appealing, and I'm sure for people who aren't already carrying a decent knife (or 6 for me), it's appealing, but I want a tool to do the functions that my good knives don't do already...

It looks ok, but I think I'll get a Charge TTi or one of those squirts for a more compact tool....

by the way, thanks for the link to the review...

Cool ... I was totally "into" Multitools in late 90's. I might pick this one up again. Nice combo of other materials (CF) and the clip.

I like the lightweight, back to the basics approach of the Skeletool. If I want something more intricate, I'll bring out my Snap On tool roll.
The only thing I don't like is it seems to use proprietary bits.
I'll likely still get one though, in aluminum handle.

This skeletool looks really cool. i think it will go well with your favorite Spydie edc. Has a very futuristic look to it,looks like a Transformer-robots in disguise. but the price,i wonder.Will it cost about the same as a Charge Ti or a Wave. i like this thing. MANIXWORLD. :spyder: :rolleyes: :D

I think it'll be approx $75 for the aluminum handled Skeletool & approx $90 for the carbon fiber version...for once, my preferred version is cheaper :D

Not too crazy about the carabiner thing, that just seems to be the rage these days.

I'll stick with my WAVE. It has everything I need in a Mulitool.

I might actually carry a multitool again. That looks pretty nice.
