Leatherman H502 Straight Edge Knife

Advantages: Small, light, blade quite sharp, a brilliant key ring tool
Disadvantages: Smaller Blades, tweezers pointless

...Lets get one thing straight : the Micra is not in the Same league as its bigger brothers from the Leatherman Family : The Wave, Pulse, PST. PST 200 etc. It was the first of a series of smaller tools that had the same "fold out" design that was aimed at the "Office Warrior/Survival Expert". This range has expanded to 3/4 size tools (The Juice Range) and a slightly improved Micra series known as the Squirt - if you need a really compact pair of pliars go for the Squirt. Anyway back to the micra. Theres two boxes - a nice Presentation box and a simple cardboard carton. If your going for a gift get the Metal presentation box. Inside you find a sheath for the tool (Virually useless - theres no belt clip so you may as well throw this away) the Micra itself and the instructions.

Advantages: Many uses, small, light
Disadvantages: Ruler not so good

...The Leatherman Micra is one of those invaluable little tools that once you use, you find it hard to live without. Mine was bought for my birthday by my step dad after I kept borrowing his.

Advantages: Small enough for everyday use
Disadvantages: No trademark pliers

...I needed a leatherman that was small enough for everyday use, be it for opening packages or fixing something small. I decided that my Pulse just wasnt suitable to carry around with me so i decided on buying either the micra or the new squirt. I opted for the micra due to its array of other features, but it lacked what i loved about Leathermans, pliers. I was stuck with a great tool, lots of features, but no pliers, just scissors. Features: The micra does have a wide range of features: Scissors Knife Tweezers Nail File/Cleaner Flat Phillips Screwdriver Extra-Small Screwdriver Medium Screwdriver Bottle Opener Ruler (inch/metric) Lanyard Attachment Weight: 1.75 ounces Length: 2.5 inches The tool is comprised of stainless steel so of course it will not rust and comes with a 25 year warranty incase anything goes...
