Not Just a Skate Tool... (I Mean it's Stupid Awesome)
There is a quite similar skate tool available on Amazon called "Paris Truck Co. Skate Multitool" or something like that. I will compare it with this RADECKAL COMPACT POCKET SKATE TOOL.I only had $20 to work with, and I needed shockpads, so this inexpensive RADECKAL was the way to go for $10. This also came in cool colors like gunbarrel which is shown, unlike the $20 Paris Truck Co. option. I saw the cool bearing socket lock on it, but it didn't sell on the price, fortunately.Speaking of the bearing socket lock, that, with more thought, might only let one put another tiny socket on the end. What good is that? THIS TOOL is pretty awesome, because there's no silly bearings; the 3/8" part is just a long HEX BIT driver, if I'm correct. It FITS in this darn DRILL.The Paris Truck Co. tool has a hex seat for its Allen-Phillips L. It may be a nicer part, but it stays there in the hexagonal hole. THIS TOOL has a beautiful MAGNETIC thing with the Allen-Phillips L and can even be used fully assembled as a HANDLE to turn the L for tough-seated screws.I used this thing, not only to undo truck/axle/kingpin nuts, but assemble and modify a horse corral with 3/8" metal screws and exterior Phillips screw brackets. My equestrian mother is in awe. THANK YOU, RADECKAL! THIS TOOL is downright amazing. I recommend this for anyone who's thinking about the Paris Truck Co. tool. (sorry, Paris Truck Co.)

This is not the tool you are looking for
This is the tool you are looking for, from paris truck co: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01E3UBX76/The mechanism that holds the radeckal tool together during storage is a magnet and doesn't feel reliable. There also isn't any mechanism that holds the tool together while in use.Whereas the the paris truck co tool is more expensive, it utilizes a friction ball found in socket wrenches to hold the tool together during storage AND use and feels much sturdier with much smaller tolerances between the parts. Its allen key is also thicker and thus more practical for use. Far and away better and much more reliable.

The Best Skate Tool
This is definitely the last skate tool you'll ever need to buy. Built like a tank and will last forever. The design is very well thought out and makes it the most compact tool I've owned. Neodymium high powered magnet holds everything together nice and secure. Pass up those plastic T-Tools, and pick up one of these, you'll be happy you did.Wanted to add that the company Bamboo Sports is amazing and all about customer service. It's rare nowadays to find companies who genuinely care about their customers and go out of their way to show it. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for the best skate tool made, or a new complete or bamboo deck.

Great compact tool
If you need a tool, get this one, it's a great design. Same functionality as a T or Y tool (minus the thread cutter that some have), but it can disassemble to the size of a pocket knife. I do a lot of 20 mile + long board rides, so this is great to throw in a pocket in case you need it without taking up space. It's all metal. The "gun barrel" finish looks awesome. Magnet holding the hex key is a good idea but I still don't trust it to stay put getting jostled around, so I keep a rubber band around it anyway.

Best compact skate tool out there.
I like everything about it. It has the dimensions of about half a cigar, so it fits into my pockets with ease. Just as funtional as any less ergonomic T-tool. The fitment of the sockets are just fine, not too tight to the point they'll jam, or too loose that it'll cause stripping.The finishing could use a little work, but even then, that'd be sort of pointless cause skate tools are prone to getting banged up.

Cool and compact
If you get a retrospec longboard you may want to get this as well. Only this tool was skinny enough to properly angle onto 2 screws on each truck. The Y tool I bought from another vendor did not work as well. I like that it's pocket sized and the gunmetal color is cool. Just what I needed.

Compact and heavy duty!
I’ve been able to use this tool as a bearing puller as well, which makes it even better!!

Not the most practical. Good build quality. I’m returning.
I think this is a brilliant product but I’m going to return it. I feel like I’m gonna drop and loose the various parts in the field. When it’s collapsed it feels great in your pocket. There is a magnet that holds the screw driver in place when collapsed. When assembled, this magnet sorta holds the T shape together but not absolutely. I want to like this but it’s not the fastest or most practical.
