Leatherman Skeletool lightweight multitool -- Boing Boing Gadgets


Joel "Boing Boing Gadgets" Johnson has just posted this Leatherman Skeletool, a full-featured Leatherman tool whose every non-essential surface has been swiss-cheesed with holes to lighten its weight to a mere five ounces. It costs $72 -- or you can go lighter with a carbon-fiber model for $96. I miss my multitool days -- after losing half a dozen to the TSA, I had to give up a years-long habit of always carrying one. Since there, there must have been one billion moments where I wished I had my pliers, knife, and hoof-pick still attached to my hip. Link, Discuss on Boing Boing Gadgets
