Key Features

• Featherlight 5 oz Skeletal Frame: Geometrically sculpted with weight-saving cutouts throughout its high-tensile stainless steel chassis, ensuring maximum structural integrity while remaining virtually unnoticeable in your pocket or on your belt loop.

• 420HC Locking Combo Blade: Outfitted with a precision-ground, partially serrated combo blade that handles both clean slicing and tough, fibrous materials like rope or webbing with ease, locking securely in place upon full deployment for total user safety.

• Onboard Handle Bit Storage: Features a clever, integrated storage slot directly within the handle frame, allowing you to carry extra Leatherman tool bits securely so you can switch fastening profiles mid-job without carrying a separate kit.

• One-Handed Outside Accessibility: The primary combo knife is positioned on the exterior of the closed chassis, enabling smooth, fast, one-handed deployment without requiring you to open the entire plier framework.

• Multi-Functional Carabiner & Bottle Opener: Engineered with a heavy-duty spring carabiner gate at the base for securing the tool instantly to backpacks, gear loops, or technical clothing, doubling as a high-leverage bottle opener when the workday is done.

The 7-Tool Minimalist Arsenal

Pro Tip & Skeletool® Maintenance: The skeletonized architecture of the Skeletool® is fantastic for cutting down weight, but it means the open channels can collect pocket lint, sawdust, or field grime over time. To ensure optimal performance, periodically blow out the frame cutouts and bit storage bay with compressed air, and apply a single drop of light pivot oil to the blade and plier hinges to keep the action buttery-smooth. When inserting bits into the large bit driver or handle storage, ensure they click firmly into place against the retention springs to prevent accidental loss while moving through rough terrain!
