Excellent can't wait to hear your thoughts on it :cheers:First thoughts so far are good! First of all, I didn't know that the bits actually lock into place so thats a big plus for me. It honestly feels lighter and sits in the pocket better than i would expect even for 5 oz. I have also noticed a nice groove right below the blade that allows a more comfortable grip. I also like the "click" that the pliers have when they are opened or are put into screw driving position. It almost feels as if there is some kind of detent to keep it in the driving position. Already had a chance to use the screwdriver and it is much mire comfortable than I imagined. All this in about 45 minutes of handling it. First impressions are honestly much better than expected. The little parts of the tool seem to be well thought out. The only downside is the combo edge, but that can (and eventually probably will) be easily switched out for a straight edge. Loving it so far! I'm sure you'll hear more about it from me once i get to carry it
Whether they are good or bad just be honest :D :like:

My first post. It's not Synday anymore but due to Christmas I didn't have time to post earlier.
I recently got myself a few multitools. One of them was a used Skeletool that I got for 27$ from US. After cleaning the dirt and rust(!) on it I felt it was a rather good deal. Skeletools here in Finland cost over double that.
Here it is chilling with its little brother Style PS on my palm:

I like how Skeletool looks but I wish it had spring in the pliers like it little brother has.

Does anyone know anything about the original coloured Skeletool releases. Was it just 5 colours?
Does anyone know anything about the original coloured Skeletool releases. Was it just 5 colours?
I can add a bit of info from the ones I have that I believe are the original LM issued coloured Skeletools. Like you, I haven't seen any other original colours.
These first 3 are in the original LM plastic on cardboard packaging and therefore I'm pretty sure they are an official LM release, rather than an aftermarket mod (eg TTC), but that doesn't mean the handles weren't coloured for LM by an outside supplier. From what I've seen in photos on ebay the coloured coating is easily chipped.
(NB the # Id is just my internal identifier for my spreadsheet):
#16L: Sticker: "831374 Skeletool Lava Red For USA sale only". Package marked "Exclusively at REI". This is a fairly dark red.
#1065: Sticker: "831478 Skeletool Ocean Blue Made in USA". Package marked "Limited Edition Colour". This is a fairly dark blue.
#14K: Sticker: "831479 Skeletool Flame Orange Made in USA". Package marked "Limited Edition Colour".
The others came loose, so no packaging and no model No. info
I do have two different Dark Green variants, #875 has "1961 Cabela's 2011, 50th ANNIVERSARY" etched on the blade and emboidered on the nylon sheath, the blade on the other one (#787) is not marked.
Looking closely at the recently released "new" Skeletool colours I have (#1261 "Sublime" - Light green, and #1262 "Denim" - Dark Grey/Blue) I would venture the opinion they have not been coloured by the same process used by TTC as the coloured finish is quite different to the "ceramic" coating on the Skeletools I have purchased direct from TTC. It looks very similar to the finish on the originals I have.
Ah'. Cheers Greg
Although it wasn't what I wanted to hear. I was really hoping that the original 5 were Genuine LM and not simply a batch that had been outsourced.
Sorry GregAh'. Cheers Greg
Although it wasn't what I wanted to hear. I was really hoping that the original 5 were Genuine LM and not simply a batch that had been outsourced.
Now you've confused me - I said I believed the original 5 coloured Skeles WERE genuine LM issue ???
I don't know whether the actual colouring of the frames was done in-house or out-sourced, but either way in my eyes they are 100% genuine, un-modified LMs (unlike the Skeles coloured and marketed by TTC which I regard as after-market mods).
Skele + Farmer make a great team :multi:

Hi Peacent. Thanks! It is a Kizer Rogue. It's a 2016 release but new to me. It is with me almost everyday now and I am falling in love with it. If you dig into the brand Kizer, you will find it is a Chinese brand but with exceptional quality. This particular badass is their bladesmith series and is designed by Dirt Pinkerton. On BladeHQ, the price is $116. I get it slightly cheaper from a New Year sales of a local dealer. With this price, you get a S35VN blade and titanium framelock. It is also buttery smooth despite it is on washers. It doesn't fall shut like some bearing flippers but it is crazy smooth. The blade is high hollow grind and you know, hollow grind wharnies are excellent for everyday utility tasks. It has a crazy blade stock of 4mm so it is very very strong. I used it in breaking down boxes, food, and some random cutting task but this little 3 inch blade does everything nicely. It is a great one, get one if you have the chance. Try to get the latest version with reversable pocket clip. The earliest version of this knife has high flat grind instead of hollow, which is fine... But I enjoy hollow grind for everyday use especially for this kind of thick blade.

Thanks Peacent! Yes, 2017 is my knife year. I started playing with knives since early days but didn't really started my collection until 2017. I bought like 40 knives in 2017 to figure out what kind of knives do I really like. I now usually pair up a 3-inchish knife with my Skeletool, Squirt or Spirit, or add a SAK for scissors if I am with Skeletool. I found these simple minimal combo really handles 99% of things in any normal day.

Just swapped blades today. This is my first post. I love y'alls enthusiasm for Skeletools. My mother in law got me mine 10 years ago for Christmas and I've always hated the serrated blade.

What...you did not like my Freestyle CX! :D
:rofl:
It is a factory error. Someone at the factory was having a bad day working the label machine. It is a Skeletool CX mislabeled a Freestyle CX. Leatherman only sold these at the official factory store as factory seconds. I have a feeling they do not let their mistakes get out into the wild these days.That is cool.
As for my previous posting...I was not being serious. :salute:

That pry tip is super dope - what is that?
Is it a standard torx bit for the main screws and if so what size?I did know but I have forgotten. :facepalm:
Both of those look pretty sweet, 5S :tu: :like:
I do believe I :like: The Hammer better even if I do :like: that pry bar awfully well :D
Apologies for the slightly off topic post but I know you guys are Skely experts.

I didn't know that the newer ones lacked the carbon fiber :sa: It is my favorite part of mine :tu: Thanks for the heads up :salute:
I didn't know that the newer ones lacked the carbon fiber :sa: It is my favorite part of mine :tu:And my least favourite part of mine. ;)
Now, does that make your CX a collectable?!? :woohoo:
And my least favourite part of mine. ;)
Carbon fiber construction now retired on the CX I guess they should call it the AX...So what is used instead? :think:
MATERIALS:(meaning for the whole tool)
154CM Stainless Steel, DLC Coating
If it has a plain blade then it is was amse in the first year of production and a bit more rare because they only made them like that for a year :like:
I only have the PE in the regular Skely and my Cx has the PE Blade as well (the PE On the Cx is much more common because only the first year of its manufacturing had a combo blade) :cheers:
I do think from what I have seen and heard that the older Skeletools are much more nicely made than what they are making now :tu:
Not at all, pal, not at all!!! Those look classy, and complements the engine turned tool like they're made for each other; kudos to you, Sir!!!! :drool: :like:
Really nice 5s, super cool tool.
I'm a day late with mine but these came in the post today.

I forgot to carry a Skeley today :facepalm: first Sunday in a month that I could have too ::) :oops:
Just be aware that the new CX does not offer carbon fiber and because of that, there is little to no weight savings.
I was gutted about that honestly. I had to buy a new one just to see what THAT was all about. Sorry to see the lovely carbon fiber go on it as it was darn pretty in the sunlight.
I know nothing (Hogan's Hero Shults). Not sure on the exact date, but I would say sometime very recently...say sometime 2020 and up.Poor show LM, poor show :td: :td: :td:

Thanks Stitchy :hatsoff: we were fixing treat bags for kids ;)
I may have ate a few though :ahhh :ahhh :ahhh :rofl:
Great pic 8) :like:
As much as I like its look, I really can't find a good place for it in my EDC : it's not really a multitool; like the Wave or spirit or mp400 can be ... it's more like folding pliers with a (nice) blade
Got a pre-used Skeletool RX lately : took it because it's orange, and features a decent (but very short) 154CM blade
(https://forum.multitool.org/index.php?action=dlattach;ts=1635709851;topic=22954.0;attach=525500)
Great photos, Rab21, Poncho, m47mu74nt and McStitchy!!
Skele spent a day at the beach today...
(https://i.imgur.com/PtohEex.jpg)
Cassie said " wait a minute that's not your SideClip "
Cool pic m47mu74nt :tu:The fact is when I need a blade, I pocket carry a proper knife : the blade is not something I really look for in a multitool (or maybe a fully serrated one)
It's got a bit driver with 4 different sizes aaaand... a bottle opener as well. And it clips into 'ya pocket nicely.
But I get what you mean. It's not a Wave or MP400. It's smaller, lighter and more pocket friendly. Like a modern version of the SideClip maybe.
Btw, is the RX knife blade shorter than normal?Yes, I think so : it is few mm above 6cm, right at the 91mm SAK blade size; might be because they knock the tip down to enable cloves tearing without the risk of tip injury
The other Skeletool knife blades fit right between the usual 91/93mm SAKs...
Thanks for the pic. Sure you can always carry more if needed :tu:
Haha! Awesome pic!

Pairs great with the Ranger
It does indeed. It pairs nicely also with a SAK. When paired with a SAK, the Skeletool give you the pliers without the redundant and space-eating tools of larger MTs like a Wave. And its more or less the same size of a Knipex Cobra 125mm, which is also a great addition to any non-pliers SAK.:iagree:

Congratulations on the first gen Cx :woohoo:
they figured out a way to make it look similar but more than likely cheaperYeah must be cheaper, and definitely quicker & easier to assemble. As far as "look similar"... having realized what's going on with these, I find them about as convincing as paper mache boulders on some planet in the original Star Trek. Ha!
Sadly it happens to be the newer one with "fakeed" pivot screw headsThe fake heads offend me!
This talk of fake heads is mostly lost upon meWell the talk of the “fake heads” is a purely fetishistic issue with no functional importance. If you don’t care about it, you will be happy and undisturbed.

You do however have the nice older “authentic” ones on the tool pictured. :)
Carrying this beauty today.Now we're talking! Great carry :drool:
It’s definitely going to be first choice for my summer circus work.
