Nice review Polak187.

I wonder if this'll be in this year's SHOT Show report?

Nas.

Great review! Is this the standard skeletool or the CX? I'm guessing the standard as I didn't think the CX was available yet.

Thanks for the great review! Agree, that is strange why Leatherman didn't include a can opener... oh well, at least folks can get into their beer.

That's one mighty fine multi-purpose tool! Any idea when it's going to hit the main retail stores?

It should be in the stores now. Carbon version of this tool should be avail late March.

Polak187,
1) That look's like Leatherman's answer to the Spydertool.
2) You are on a hiding to nothing trying to carabiner anything small directly to a strap. Full sized carabiners - yes. Mini's - No. Use a large split ring (sort you put keys on) on the strap and then clip the crab to that.
3) Any idea what the steel is? If it's not 154CM or better you had better tell them to try again.

Well they use: 420C on regulr tool (one I have) and their "premium" Cx version is going to have 154CM.

I was under impression that Spydertool is being reincarnated. I want it but not willing to pay $100 or so for used one.
