According to our multi-tool outdoor expert
The Leatherman Skeletool CX is a multitool specially developed for outdoor activities. Different pliers, a knife, 2 bits and a bottle opener ensure that you always have the necessary at hand. The multitool can easily be attached to a bag or belt by the carabiner present. The body is made of stainless steel. This type of steel is known for its high hardness and rust resistance. The handle is made of carbon, which has the characteristic that it is light. This makes the Leatherman Skeletool CX lightweight.

Leatherman only makes quality products. This Skeletool is therefore extremely maintenance-friendly. I've had mine for 1.5 years now and there is no rust on the blade. I do have some rust spots in the harder to reach places of the knife.
It doesn't contain many tools (which is its biggest flaw) but they are super user-friendly. The interchangeable bits are really great. this one I use the most. they are of good quality.
The knife stays sharp for a long time and is super accessible. you don't need to open the tool.
The bottle opener is slightly less accessible due to the click at the front of your belt. it's a bit in the way and I've never actually used that clip.
Above all, it looks great because of the carbon handles and this also makes it super light.
This is a super high quality tool.

Supertool is a light weight, this is already my third leatherman and will certainly purchase more in the future.

Earlier this year I got a Skeletool SX for snowboard travel; I was very pleased with it but unfortunately lost it. Only downside of the SX for me was the absence of a flat screwdriver so I ordered the CX version this time. The CX version has an extra recess for a supplied 'bit' for a flat screwdriver in the handle. The tool is compact and quite light (140g). The tools themselves are sturdy and of good quality. I think the finish with curved lines looks a lot nicer than the classic pocket knife look. Very easy tool to keep with you, comes almost daily for small items such as opening beers, cutting packages, screwing open electronic devices, etc. but it is also quite useful for odd jobs around the house and rarely has to bring out the larger toolbox. The tool is also compatible with the bit kit so that for a small extra price you can expand the range of the tool even further (eg 'Ikea' wrenches, screwdriver for small screws, etc.).
Only downside I could find is that the shape of the tool makes it a bit difficult to reach screws in tight spaces, but apparently there is a bit extender for that too.
Not a heavy duty tool but ideal for everyday use.
