Thanks for the welcome! Yes, it's true about waiting. But I'm torched by UPS tracking just the same...

Has anybody noticed that there seem to be variations in the plier head design?

I'm looking at my Skeletool, which was just bought at Target a few weeks ago, and my Freestyle, which I got in the Costco combo pack in '09 or so, and the engraving of the heads is substantially different. The "LEATHERMAN" text is thinner and more deeply engraved on the Skeletool. The Freestyle has a large circle on each side of the pliers, on top of the "shank" where it attaches to the handle, but the Skeletool doesn't have this, and just has a small oval like the ones that are already present on the other plier head.

There's a small number in a circle partly hidden by the handle opposite where the circle is, as well. The Freestyle appears to say "2_" and the Skeletool looks like it says either "11" or "4".

I'll take a picture later to clarify what I mean.

As a mechanic, I love this tool!  I keep my Saw, file and anything that works better full size or I don't "need" in my toolbox.

This is my second Skeletool. The first one i have at home mainly for scuba diving. This one i bought to replace my Juice C2 witch i have EDC at work for 6 years.
I bought it at Bass Pro Shop in Savannah GA for 75 US. I thought it should be much cheaper than that in the US.

Does a Sleletool CX count?  If so, here's mine

[Heinz Doofenshmirtz]

Yes!  It counts!  Welcome!

[Beerplumber]

I like the dartboard pic! That's awlsome! Regarding the pliers I know the engraving changed when they swapped the CE to PE on both models. I'll take a pic of my old cx beside my new SS later. As for freestyle vs skele I'm not too sure. I don't have a freestyle yet.


Stay multi my friends

Niro,
I have just spotted the panel key you are using 

[Niro]

Yes for me it is very useful and it is easy to make. The flat-head on the other side can still be used for adjusting pressure switches and other small screws.
