Lifehacker
on: June 07, 2013, 09:19:45 AM
Lifehacker (a site focusing on tips and tricks to make life simpler) is looking at multitools this week and is inviting suggestions for its top 5 multi tools.

I figured some of you may fancy giving your opinions. The top 5 suggestions in the comments go into a poll for overall best suggestion.

I wonder if this is going to be like the typical magazine top 5 article where whoever comes up with a check fastest gets picked.

The Skeletool and Skeletool CX are smaller, lighter Leatherman multitools that feature fewer specific tools, but are lighter, more portable, and small enough to go on a keychain or keep in your pocket.

Yeah, whoever suggested that is rather insane... I really need to sell my skeletool - nice knife and bottle opener but useless for anything else.
