Micra - Don't leave home without it!, January 20, 2009
Micra Green Aluminum Handle No Sheath Box
Leatherman Micra Multi-Tool 64350101K Brand: Leatherman Type: Multi-Tool Weight: 1.8I bought my first Micra several years ago. I thought it might replace my small Victorinox. At first, I found it to be a little bulky in comparison. But soon, the Victorinox stayed a home and the Micra was always in my pocket.The scissors are very sharp and strong. The screwdrivers are incredibly functional, especially the single slot Phillips. The file works on everything from metal to fingernails. Leatherman knives are all extremely sharp. This one is no exception.The tweesers work fine but lack the flexibility of the Victorinox. But you never loose them either! My only real complaint with the Micra is that the knife and tools don't lock in place. Especially with the knife, you have to be careful because it can move a bit even when the handles are closed.I think highly enough of the Micra that it was the first item on my shopping list for everyone in my family and my closest friends this past Christmas. It is a well thought out, extremely...

| Author: donstein "Don" (Sacramen.. | The Leatherman Micra Multi-tool has been produced a long time. It is a nice pocket tool and since Leatherman has introduced a new small pocket tool "Squirt" the prices have fallen greatly. The major difference between this Leatherman small pocket tool and their "squirt" is thickness, the "Micra" being thinner and also tool access. With the "Micra", it needs to be unfolded to access the knife, screw drivers, etc. With the "Squirt" these are accessible while the tool is closed.Also with the "Micra" the tweezers are attached, and with the "Squirt" they're not. To me, those features and that some models have pliers or wire cutters, instead of scissors seem to be the main selection decisions. Also the smooth finish on the outside of the "squirt" scratches easily and scratches don't show on the "Micra". | 10 | |

| Author: S. Houston (Nashville, T.. | Over 10 years ago I was given a Leatherman Micra as a Christmas present, and I have carried it with me continually ever since. It is small enough to be carried on my key ring, but I have used it thousands of times when ordinary tools like a Phillips head screwdriver, a nail file, or a pair of scissors were unavailable. It is almost indestructible. When I misplaced it after removing it from my keyring to get on an airplane (!), I had to replace it - it has become too indispensable. | 8 | |
