I went to a local store to buy a leatherwave because I had exactly the money I needed in my pocket but I ended up buying this and a couple tins of grizzly so you fellas better be as mad as I was. :grumpy:

I found this in the bargin bin for $10

Clearly the same shape as the skeletool

The blade has no point, wicked play in every direction and the thumbhole is too small to even be functional.

On the other side they have a tiny crappy hidden little saw

The pliers are spring loaded, the wire cutters wouldnt even cut headphone wires and the handles are sharp

The hole for the screwdriver tips is terrible. you have two heads you can use and they both are terrible

The clip came bend so theres no pocket retention at all

This is an absolutely terrible knockoff of a great knife. if you're going to go to this length to copy a knife at least make it comparable.
 
At $10, I'd say you got robbed. The question is, did you mistake that for a Leatherman Skeletool? There are enough obvious differences that they probably couldn't even get in trouble for making a copy of a patented or trademarked design.

I'm sorry man I forget people can read my mind and it does make it a bit confusing

I knew it wasnt a skeleteool. I have a couple leatherman and know all about them. I purchased this because I wanted to show you fellas it and.....i mostly wanted some dip too.
