Great review. Personally though, I think it has all the necessary features on it that I actually use. I have a Charge XTi, its an incredible multi-tool... But I barely use any of the functions except the four on the Skeletool, where it seems the Skeletool have improved a lot upon compared to the Charge. The bit drivers have too much play to seriously use it for heavy torque jobs, but the Skeletools quick release seems to remedy that, but I don't know yet, I'm still waiting for mine to arrive.

I haven't needed to bear down while using the Skeletool as a screwdriver, bur I suspect it would not be a problem.

The one feature that I miss is a file. While I use it less often than the standard tools on the Skeletool it can be handy.

First must say that your video clip really added to your review, and helped show the features of your Leatherman Skeletool CX quite well. It added a good explanation to the features that can't be explained in text. As one who owns a number products from both Leatherman and Gerber, I felt that your video and overall review were quite helpful.

As far as the screwdriver goes, you might want to consider conserving your screwdriver except for emergencies and take a look at the Leatherman 934870 40 Bit Assortment, which comes with a nylon sheath. It will add to the functionality of the Skeletool CX, and will save the screwdriver for more lightweight tasks.

Excellent review - thanks.
