2The knife is very light and sharp but the main screw holding the blade needs to be screwed back very often as it is not very tight. When screwed too much does the knife does not open and if not screwed enough then the blade is wobbly when the knife is open.
Either it should come with a screw you could screw manually or it should have a mechanism to prevent it to unscrew itself when opening the blase.
Sorry I really wanted to like it and when my family saw it they all wanted one but now I'm very hesitant to buy more of it. Eric Cullerier

4This knife is alot smaller than it looks, the photos could do with someone included using it so customers can see that its a small pen knife size, not a fisherman type knife. The quality is great though as you would expect from Leatherman. chris daniels

4Handy little knife. Sharp. Maybe a little too small as you have to be careful to keep your hand/fingers on the handle and not to slip onto the blade. Clip is removable, but you need a very small (tiny) Torx driver. Anonymous

3The knife is great but I selected the gift box option and it didn't arrive in a gift box which was a shame as it was a Christmas present. Luckily I managed to intervene beforehand but still. Not fun if the option provided isn't actioned when selected. Would of bee 5 stars otherwise, Great knife and has been handy for the owner ever since for daily use.Benjamin Allison

2photos are brilliant,in reality its very small,very expensive and not particularly well built.
(yeah i know its got a flimsy bottle opener on the pocket clip)
just buy a swiss army huntsman,far far better alternative and if you shop around its £10 cheaper.leatherman interpret "skeletool"as a minimalistic,overpriced gimmick.
in short very disappointing. Anonymous

1Poor. I bought this to compliment my skeletool CX which I carry daily but can be a bit bulky. I’m not sure where the KBx is manufactured but the quality is very poor compared to the CX. The KBx is exceptionally light weight but felt more like a toy. The blade had a huge burr on the serrated section, making it unusable. I could have removed this but why should I? I don’t feel it’s right to receive a knife in this state. Furthermore the green colour is matte paint - I was hoping it was anodised. I can’t recommend this knife - definitely a poor product compared to most of Leatherman’s offerings. I returned the knife and received a refund. Greg Wood

4Beautifully engineered little knife. You get the confidence of having a Leatherman and know it will last a lifetime. It is not an outdoorsman knife but more of a gentleman's edc. My only negative is that doesn't open as easily as I'd like but this is probably down to my oversize hands.James

The Skeletool KBX is a versatile 420HC combo straight/serrated knife blade that's great for heavy-duty work or for quick, everyday uses. The built-in bottle opener on the clip is handy too.
For kindling, gear repairs, and cooking needs, the Leatherman blades will do the trick without weighing you down, hardly more than a single ounce.
Another one to add to your Leatherman collection!
