Leatherman - Skeletool® CX Multi-Tool – Minimalist Ultra-Lightweight 7-in-1 Design with Premium 154CM Steel Blade

The Leatherman Skeletool® CX strips away the bulk to get you completely back to basics—delivering only the most vital features in a sleek, visually striking, and ultra-lightweight frame. Weighing a mere 5 ounces, this compact multi-tool is the ultimate expression of modern minimalism, proving that sometimes less is undeniably more. The undeniable star of the CX architecture is its upgraded, high-performance 154CM stainless steel knife blade, engineered to offer incredible edge retention and superior corrosion resistance compared to standard multi-tool blades. Striking the perfect balance between a dedicated pocket knife and a fully functional utility platform, the Skeletool® CX bundles heavy-duty pliers, an interchangeable bit driver system, a removable pocket clip, and a dual-purpose carabiner/bottle opener into a low-volume, high-efficiency daily companion.

Best For Everyday carry (EDC) enthusiasts, minimalist hikers, weight-conscious outdoor adventurers, and urban professionals looking for a premium, pocket-sized tool focused on the most frequently used daily implements without unnecessary extra bulk.

Key Features

• Ultra-Lightweight Skeletal Profile: Geometrically sculpted with weight-saving cutouts throughout the stainless steel body, ensuring heavy-duty structural integrity while cutting down pack weight for comfortable pocket carry.

• Outside-Accessible One-Handed Opening: The primary 154CM blade can be deployed smoothly with a single hand while the multi-tool is closed, mimicking the lightning-fast convenience of a premium dedicated folding pocket knife.

• Integrated Carabiner & Bottle Opener: Features a built-in heavy-duty spring carabiner clip at the base for securing the tool directly to belt loops, backpacks, or technical gear, doubling as a high-leverage bottle opener.

The 7-Tool Minimalist Arsenal

Pro Tip & Skeletool® CX Maintenance: The lightweight, skeletonized design of the CX means its open channels can occasionally collect lint, dirt, or pocket debris over time. To maintain smooth deployment, periodically clear the frame cutouts with a soft-bristled brush or compressed air, and add a single microscopic drop of light pivot oil to the knife and plier hinges. Because the 154CM steel is highly wear-resistant, it holds its edge beautifully; when it does come time to sharpen, use a fine diamond file or whetstone to preserve the premium factory bevel. Keep the integrated pocket clip screws snugly tightened to ensure your Skeletool® remains safely anchored wherever your path leads!

Oversized Item Delivery Options

Oversized, heavy, and structural goods ship via specialist freight. Freight is calculated at checkout from estimated packaged volumetric or physical weight. Carrier depot audits may adjust the rate — if the increase exceeds 10%, we will contact you before processing.

Available options include:

✔ Delivery to your closest depot for pickup — default method
✔ Direct delivery — requires an operational forklift on site unless Tailgate Delivery has been specifically requested and quoted (contact us — this cannot be selected at checkout)
✔ Tailgate hydraulic lift delivery — must be specifically requested; contact us for a quote (not available as a checkout option; extra fees apply; required if you do not have a forklift)
✔ Forklift loading at our warehouse (no extra charge if you arrange your own freight)
✔ Direct truck delivery (available in Victoria)

Important Notes:

• Shipping costs vary by location and method
• Any carton or consignment over 25–30kg (or over 200cm) must be palletised
• Without a specifically requested and paid Tailgate Delivery quote, palletised freight requires a forklift on site — otherwise the carrier will redirect to the nearest depot
• Bulky and oversized items cannot be delivered to a PO Box — provide a physical street address
• Failed deliveries, locked gates, unattended sites, or incorrect business/forklift declarations may incur carrier redelivery, demurrage, and restocking fees as set out in our Terms & Conditions

Business Delivery:

• Selecting a business/commercial delivery rate warrants that the address has an operational forklift and certified operator during business hours
• If the carrier cannot unload, the consignment may be redirected to a depot and secondary fees may apply
• Additional fees may apply for failed delivery attempts due to lack of appropriate unloading equipment

See our Terms & Conditions (Article 8) for full freight and delivery rules.

Important Note on Availability & Shipping

Our warehouse is a logistics hub, not a retail showroom. Listing a product online does not mean it is stored at our Thomastown warehouse — many lines ship from supplier hubs (split fulfilment may apply).

How lead times work:

• Product page ETA: The Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA) / lead-time badge shown on the product page at checkout is the agreed delivery timeframe for that order under Australian Consumer Law.
• Metro baselines: Advertised ETAs apply to standard metropolitan zones. Regional and remote addresses may take longer and may attract surcharges.
• Peak seasons: Orders in March–May, August–October, EOFY (June), Black Friday/Cyber Monday (November), and Christmas/New Year (December–January) may automatically add a 2–4 week buffer beyond the product page ETA.
• Supplier-dependent / backordered items: If stock is delayed, we will notify you with a revised ETA. You then have 7 days to accept the new timeframe or cancel for a full refund.
• Adloheat: Custom-made products from Adloheat (Pakenham, VIC) may take 4–12 weeks depending on the order.

Full fulfilment, cancellation, and freight rules are in our Terms & Conditions.

Biosecurity & Interstate Shipping Restrictions

Due to strict state biosecurity regulations, we are unable to ship some products to certain states and territories:

• Potting Mixes cannot be shipped to Western Australia (WA), the Northern Territory (NT), or Tasmania (TAS).
• Seeds cannot be shipped to Western Australia (WA).

Orders placed for these items to restricted states will be cancelled and refunded. It is the customer's responsibility to ensure that the items being ordered can lawfully be delivered to their state or territory.
