The picture shows a non-serrated blade, but the model on Leatherman's website shows a serrated blade. Anyone know what I will actually receive?

I have gone through three of these tools. The blades on all three have the bottom half serrated. OK for occasional sawing tasks, but not for anything extensive. The tool is great overall. The pliers are the weak point. I have had them break after using them extensively. Could be the tensile strength of the pliers, but I am not a metallurgist, so cannot offer a good explanation. Leatherman has replaced each broken knife promptly.

There is a skeletool that has a smooth blade but it's black and is the CX version

I ordered mine from Amazon and got a blade with the inside half of the blade (closer to the root) serrated and the outer half is smooth.

The first generation ones had a plain edge knife blade as do the black CX versions. Newer ones have the combo blade, half serrated/ half plain.

I love my skeltool its built solid yet it is really strange looking perfect for a desk object to do stuff around the office and yes it came with a half serated blade with some real heft to it.Unless you do super heavy tasks with it it is perfect .I've done all sorts of work with it and never had a problem.

All the knives are serrated. These knives have been my worst purchase ever. I would return them in a heartbeat if I could. I would highly advise against these knives.

It's not serrated; it has ridges on the spine for better purchase during detailed work so one's fingers are less likely to slip off. They also enable the use of a ferrocerium rod.

There were two kits shown when I ordered. This one (a little more expensive) and the one with 4. The gray looking one (#5) in the back of the box is the one for serrated. It is in a triangular shape with the sharp edge up. I think you can order the set without the serrated and it will have the four colored ones and be a bit cheaper. I've used all but the serrated one. The set works extremely well as long as a person follows the directions.

The picture is serrated, but the blade comes as stated...plain. a nice knife for the money, but if you don't have one already, get a spyderco paramilitary 2. A beautiful blade! Hard to get on amazon, so try knife center, or midway knife. beware of fakes on ebay. good luck.

The one I ordered came with a serrated portion however you can order it any style you want, full drop point or tanto. Best knife you'll own under 300$ garanteed.

The item number (830278) matches the new one on Leatherman's website (https://www.leatherman.com/830278.html) but the product pictures don't match up... I would go off on the product number because it is more reliable than the misleading pictures Amazon occasionally uses.

No, it is definitely serrated. There is only about a quarter inch straight edge at the tip of the blade. Your blade choice kind of depends on what you want to use it for. The serrated edge cuts like nobody's business but for a general use pocket knife I also bought a straight edge, which I find more useful. Both are terrific in their own right. Also, the clip is easily removable which makes it a nice sized pocket knife in my shorts. When it's cooler and I wear jeans the clip works well to hold it in the change pocket; it's a perfect fit!

No it's a solid blade. The one I received also had a straight blade as opposed to the curved one in the photo. I didn't really care though.

the blade is a normal drop style blade if you get non serrated , i believe the serrated blur blade is the tanto style.

I had the same question and worry. I finnaly ordered and got the plain. I think the don't make the force serrated anymore but I could be wrong.

Yes -it has a nice serrated edge. We love this knife!! Our first one disappeared for about 4 years. It was the one of the set that we used the most. Of course, as soon as I ordered a new one for my husband for Christmas last year, we found ours in the church kitchen! So now, we have 2, which is not a bad thing!

The photo is not accurate. Mine came with ONE "blade". This is a fine tool and I think a very valuable one. I always carry it with me when I go to my carving clubs. Easy to use but it can be delicate if you are not careful. Think of it as a lemon/lime zester that you can use on wood. Although I use all the extra blades I purchased separately, I use the round one the most.

The one I received was serrated and I wanted the straight edge I contacted the seller and the serrated was the last one he had. I kept it for 130.00 dollars I can't complain. The knife is top quality.

It is serrated. Great knife. I have been less than kind to it and it has held up.

G.M.: I'm very sorry, but I have misled you. The Port Meirion knives are serrated, just the tiniest bit. I was using my memory to answer you earlier. I was sure I was right. But at dinner, I noticed the tiny serrations--just enough to make the knives effective; no aesthetic or discomfort problems--and I wanted to correct my error as soon as possible. Again, my apologies.
