Nice price, seems like a solid choice!
I'll say up front, I am not a huge skater, so I can't comment on the durability of this tool because I'm not CONSTANTLY using it. But, for the occasional adjustment I need to make to my couple of longboards, this does the trick - all-in-one!It also looks nice, and the price is definitely right. Convenient size, too.Build-wise, it seems fine... lots of plastic, but hopefully that wouldn't crack when being torqued - so far, so good. Seems solid enough but only time will tell, I can update if I have any issues.Overall, seems like a good enough choice if you're seeing such a tool!

Recommended for skaters
This multitool is designed to be used on a skateboard, and for that purpose it does an excellent job. It has 3 different hex sizes and a top "L" shaped piece that can be removed with a Phillip's head on one side and a tiny male hex on the other side. The "T" shape means that you will have a good amount of leverage when using any of the 3 hex sizes. It is also quite compact, and I was able to carry it around in my back pocket (although sitting on it wasn't great). Ideally, you would take this in your front pocket or bag when planning to swap or replace parts on your skateboard.There is a small rubber circle on the "L" shaped piece that holds it inside, though over time I can imagine that you might have some difficulty getting it to stay inside the "T" piece, as it slides out pretty easily. Though that is speculation so I can't hold that against the design (yet).I tested it on my son's "child sized" skateboard, and I was able to adjust all of the different sized screws and nuts using this tool. It was nice to have the correct sizes on hand and not need to test a lot of different sizes to find the right one.My only real complaint is that the tool is quite limited in it's application. For a similar price, I'm sure you can buy a small tool set with a larger variety of hex tools and screw driver attachments. If you're a skater and you ONLY need a tool for your skateboard, this would be 5/5 stars. But for a homeowner that has many other tool sets available in my garage, this doesn't have any unique function.Overall, I think this is a quality multitool and would recommend it highly for anyone who does a lot of work on skateboards, or doesn't need a tool for anything else BUT skateboards. For me, it will probably sit on my shelf and not see much use since I have another tool set nearby with a lot more options. I'm giving it 4 of 5 stars.

The Best Design - But Not the Best Metal
I bought an Element brand skate tool that looks just like this over 20 years ago. It was built like a professional mechanics tool - the same metal (I think) as a high-end socket wrench set. This one is made of flimsier metal. The metal itself isn't highly polished and you can see the rough surface of the metal. It weights a lot less than my old one. Still, this Retrospec brand works fine. You need it regularly to adjust the tension on the kingpin nut to make the board perfect to steer. You can take a board apart completely with this tool. My old one cost $25 back then. This new one is much cheaper and good enough. And I looked up the current Element brand and it looks just like this one (mine did not have the rubber gasket to hold in the screwdriver). I think this is the way they make them now.

Not a BS review
The quality is good. Doesn't feel cheap. They work perfectly for what they are meant to do.
