See the Skeletool KBx in action
Watch how slim it is, how the combo edge handles cord and packaging, and how the clip opens a bottle.
Simple, slim and always with you
Two edges in one blade
The straight part of the edge slices cleanly through paper, tape and fruit. The serrated part grips and saws through tougher, fibrous material like cord, rope, cable ties and packaging straps.
The blade locks open while you work, then folds safely away.
So light you'll forget it's there
At 36.85 g and just 0.76 cm thick, the KBx weighs less than most keyrings. Clip it inside a trouser pocket and it rides flat and out of the way all day.
A bottle opener in the clip
The pocket clip doubles as a bottle opener, so it's always on the outside and ready to use, with no unfolding needed.
Leatherman backs the whole tool with a 25-year limited warranty.
Two tools, done well
The KBx keeps things simple: just the two things you reach for most often.
420HC combo-edge blade
A 6.6 cm stainless steel blade, part straight and part serrated. Opens parcels, cuts cord, rope, tape and packaging straps, and slices fruit. Locks open while in use and is easy to maintain.
Bottle opener clip
Built into the replaceable pocket clip, so it's always on the outside of the tool. Pops crown caps on soda and glass bottles in a second.
Choose your colour
Same tool, five finishes. Pick yours from the options above.
Denim Blue
A calm, faded-denim blue.
Stainless Steel
Classic brushed silver.
Sublime Green
A bright, cheerful green that's easy to spot.
Coyote Tan
A warm, earthy outdoor tan.
Black & Silver
Smart two-tone black and steel.

Keep it working like new
Clean
Pocket lint collects in slim tools. Rinse in warm, soapy water now and then, and dry it fully with the blade open.
Oil
A drop of light oil on the pivot keeps the blade opening smoothly.
Sharpen
Sharpen the straight section on any stone. For the serrated section, use a tapered ceramic rod, one scallop at a time.
Use it for cutting only
Prying or twisting with the blade can chip the edge. For prying, use a tool with a pry bar, like the FREE T2.
Questions customers ask us
What's the difference between the KBx and the KB?
They're the same size and weight. The KBx has a combo edge, part straight and part serrated, which handles cord, rope and straps better. The KB has a plain edge, which is easier to sharpen and slices more cleanly.
Where is the bottle opener?
It's built into the pocket clip, so it's always on the outside of the tool and ready to use without unfolding anything.
Does the blade lock?
Yes. The blade locks open while you work, then releases to fold safely away.
Does it need a sheath?
No. The KBx is designed to be carried clipped inside a pocket. It's so slim and light that a sheath isn't needed.
Is it a good gift?
Yes. It's light, useful every day, comes in five colours, and can be personalised for free with laser engraving on the handle. See examples of our engraving.
Can I take it on a flight?
Not in your cabin bag, because it has a blade. Pack it in checked luggage.
How quickly will it reach me?
We ship from Hyderabad within one business day, and orders placed before 11 am ship the same day. Delivery time after that depends on your city.
Will I get a GST invoice?
Yes. The price includes 18% GST, and registered businesses can claim input tax credit. Share your GSTIN when you order.
Can I see it before I buy?
Yes. Visit our Hyderabad store, book a video call demo, or message us on WhatsApp.

I wanted to have something which was simply yet effective for cutting and slicing, multitools sometimes becomes a bit cumbersome. I chose Skeletool KBX instead of KB, because it has serrated edges too. It is an ideal pocket knife and EDC and it simply vanishes in your pocket. No issues on quality, afterall a Leatherman product. 😀

I ordered for Coyote Tan but I received silver

Very well made and portable Edc

Though this is small, it is very very sharp. Be careful while using. Best use case is everyday carry, wherever you are going. Blade has stright edge and as well as other different kind of edge.
It is very small and can go into your pocket and you will not feel any weight of it.
This is my first leatherman.
M
A compact lightweight ergonomic design fully functional perfectly balanced 440 HC steel partially serrated knife with a sturdy pocket clip and a bottle opener. Easy to sharp clip deploy and maintain.
When it comes to EDC this little fellow beats the best knives like my super expensive benchmade or kabar or buck with superior steel CPM S30V or 154CM which are harder to sharp..
Do all EDC knife highly recommend..
We ship from our Wear-house in Hyderabad within 24 hours of order receipt.
Orders received before 11am are shipped the same day.
