Customer Review:
A great keychain tool, I use mine nearly every day
I read some place that the difference between a man and an animal is that humans use tools. The proliferation of multi-tools like the micra may be proof of that theory. I have mine hooked to my car keys and use it just about every day. Just this morning, I snipped a plastic wrapper on a package of cashews with the scissors and yesterday I filed a chipped fingernail that was catching on just about everything.
The size, weight and shape are just right and encourage you to carry it every day. Caution - You can't carry it on a plane so remember to leave it at home or pack it in your checked bags. If you don't, the guards will take it. Also, recently, I was stopped at the door of the Meadowslands arena by a security guard and was told that I had to put mine in the car if I wanted to enter. That's me, armed and dangerous with a nail file! The only complaint is the tweezer - mine is just about useless. The jaws do not meet evenly and the fact that the tweezer will not come off the tool make it a zero in my book. Hence a 4 out of 5 stars. Perhaps, maybe mine is unusual? All in all, this is neat gadget and for twenty bucks, a bargain to boot.
Awesome little Leatherman
I bought a Micra bundled with the New Wave. This little Leatherman is built very solid and it packs a lot of useful tools. I'm using it as a keychain and its size is adequate for this purpose. Very good job Leatherman!
Compact, practical & sturdy
I've owned and used a Micra for several years now. This small tool has proven itself over and over. Its perfect compact size allows you to carry it in even the smallest pockets or use it as a keychain.
The scissors are the primary tool and they are tougher than they look. I've owned several Victorinox pocket knives (one for almost 20 years) and the scissors have always failed. The scissors on these models (at least the ones I've owned) are serrated while the Micra's are not. If you're looking for a clean cut edge the Micra is the better choice.
The other tools on the Micra - screwdrivers, tweezers, small blade, bottle opener, etc. - are all very good for their intended use. About the only complaint I have is that the measuring marks on the outside shell aren't more clear. Still, it's likely that most people won't use the Micra for this purpose.
