I'm in need of a lightweight, very portable, and simple multi-tool that has a knife, pliers, and will allow me to work on computers when running around the neighborhood. I'm a very outdoorsy guy (camping and hiking), so this will be used well. Does anyone here own this or have used the skeletool? Any comments and feedback about this multi-tool would be great!

i guess its neat looking but...well, i bought a Surge for that price and love the thing. If nothing else, you know the quality will be good.
i also have the micra....fits on a keychain, but id rather have something that small with pliers :-/

just looking over the leatherman site...have you seen the crunch? damn nifty: a locking set of pliers :) barely heavier than the skeletool, and actually seems to have more features for a lower price. mmmm.

A serious dilemma. :p
