...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.
On the tool itself are a pair of scissors, a knife...

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. It is very useful to have in your pocket around the house, especially when trying to open up boxes or packets.
The Features
The Leatherman Micra has the following features:
* Scissors
* Knife (about 4cm blade)
* Tweezers (useful for splinters)
* Nail file with a hook thing for cleaning them as well
* Flat screwdriver designed to fit Phillips screws
* Extra small screwdriver (useful for those extra small screws)
* Medium screwdriver
* Bottle Opener
* Ruler (inch/metric) (though this is not very easy to use)
As you can see, this knife has all of the features that you are likely to need for general use around the home. The knife...

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...
