I carried mine for a couple months, put it away for a couple reasons. When I first saw LM was making a knife only Skeletool, I was elated. The blade shape, size, and aesthetic just do it for me. But, it was uncomfortable to use. I carried it loose in pocket for a while, amd jabbed my finger so hard on the bottle opener tab that it bled. Right by my nail. Filed off that sucker, and problem fixed. Bottle opener didn't work very well anyway, and I still needed the pocket clip because the handle was too thin otherwise. Secondly, opening it one handed was hazardous. The thumb hole half moon was too small. A couple times I nearly cut my thumb open when it skittered out of the hole. Two handed opening it is.Last two, performance related, the blade was just too thick for how small it is from edge to spine, making the blade toi obtuse for my liking, and I have too choke up on thr handle in order to cut anything. All that being said, I tapped out, didn't look back.
I picked up a Skeletool KBx when Academy when they had the colored one on sale for ~$15. I got a Denim colored one. It looks good, the quality was good and the build well fitted, just like the Skeletool. But from a usability point of view it was not good, The handle is so small and awkward that one handed opening and closing was very hard compared to how easy I can do that with my Skeletool. The small handle also made it uncomfortable to cut with especially if it required serious pressure. The bottle opener was as likely to tear through the cap as it was to pry it off and it was again awkward to use as a bottle opener. I only carried it a few days and put it away. I will use it as a spare blade if I ever break my Skeletool blade.
