The Leatherman Skeletool® RX Rescue is a precision-engineered, ultra-focused emergency instrument tailored specifically for EMTs, paramedics, and first responders who require rapid, reliable utility in high-stress rescue situations. Stripping away unnecessary weight to optimise response time, this specialised 142-gram multi-tool features advanced, mission-critical adaptations designed for vehicular extraction and tactical patient access. The RX architecture boasts an upgraded, deeply serrated 154CM stainless steel knife blade, offering expanded cutting surface area to effortlessly slice through heavy seatbelts, thick leather, or dense fibrous clothing. Complete with an interchangeable large bit driver loaded with a high-density carbide glass break bit, the Skeletool® RX is a lightweight, low-volume powerhouse built to ensure you can act quickly, safely, and decisively when lives are on the line.
Crafted to perform under intense pressure, the minimalist profile ensures the tool fits comfortably in a uniform pocket or tactical vest without creating unnecessary bulk. By reducing the toolset to the absolute essentials, operators can deploy critical cutting and smashing implements in a fraction of a second. Whether accessing a trapped passenger through tempered automotive glass or slicing through heavy field gear to treat a trauma patient, this responsive platform provides the exact technical edge required during the golden hour of emergency medicine.
Best For: Emergency medical technicians (EMTs), paramedics, firefighters, rescue squads, and law enforcement officers who require a lightweight, quick-deployment rescue tool focused on extrication and cutting through tough textiles.

Pro Tip & Skeletool® RX Maintenance: Because your Skeletool® RX is an emergency lifeline that often interfaces with harsh elements, glass dust, or clothing debris, it thrives on routine, preventative care. Periodically flush out the large bit driver channel and the skeletonised handle frames with compressed air or warm water to prevent debris binding.
Keep a light layer of synthetic machine oil on the knife pivot and plier joints to ensure deployment remains lightning-fast. When using the carbide glass breaker bit, ensure the bit is seated firmly all the way into the driver; strike the centre of the window firmly, and remember to swap your bits back to standard drivers when working on routine station maintenance chores!
