The Leatherman Skeletool® CX strips away the bulk to get you completely back to basics—delivering only the most vital features in a sleek, visually striking, and ultra-lightweight frame. Weighing a mere 5 ounces, this compact multi-tool is the ultimate expression of modern minimalism, proving that sometimes less is undeniably more. The undeniable star of the CX architecture is its upgraded, high-performance 154CM stainless steel knife blade, engineered to offer incredible edge retention and superior corrosion resistance compared to standard multi-tool blades. Striking the perfect balance between a dedicated pocket knife and a fully functional utility platform, the Skeletool® CX bundles heavy-duty pliers, an interchangeable bit driver system, a removable pocket clip, and a dual-purpose carabiner/bottle opener into a low-volume, high-efficiency daily companion.
Best For Everyday carry (EDC) enthusiasts, minimalist hikers, weight-conscious outdoor adventurers, and urban professionals looking for a premium, pocket-sized tool focused on the most frequently used daily implements without unnecessary extra bulk.

Pro Tip & Skeletool® CX Maintenance: The lightweight, skeletonized design of the CX means its open channels can occasionally collect lint, dirt, or pocket debris over time. To maintain smooth deployment, periodically clear the frame cutouts with a soft-bristled brush or compressed air, and add a single microscopic drop of light pivot oil to the knife and plier hinges. Because the 154CM steel is highly wear-resistant, it holds its edge beautifully; when it does come time to sharpen, use a fine diamond file or whetstone to preserve the premium factory bevel. Keep the integrated pocket clip screws snugly tightened to ensure your Skeletool® remains safely anchored wherever your path leads!
