That's amazing considering they are not supposed to be released from SOG yet....

I ordered it just to see what would happen,I realize the situation with sog.The price was reasonable and if it puts me on a list to get one when they become avaliable I will be happy.

I think I might pick one up when these things pop since everyone is stark raving mad for them. I still don't see why they're so darn good though. The pliers just look big and bulky and fat.

Already posted this pic several months ago, but I thought a copy of it would fit in this thread nicely. :)

If the quality is the same (or better) than the old Micro Toolclip, I see the removal of the serrated blade a plus.  Instead of a miniature version of the Freestyle (pliers and blade, effectively), you now get a bottle opener, file, flathead screwdrivers, and maybe more.  Looks like a big improvement to me, personally.  Well, not to mention that the pocket clip is placed correctly this time. :)

Exactly..  :tu: The file is much more needed than a serrated blade imo..  :)

I have honestly not used a file on any of my multitools once.

A file is far more useful than a second blade on such a small tool IMO.

That said, the Micro Toolclip leaves a lot to be desired as a viable tool IMO.

I want a pink one though. :D

Honestly, is there ever really a time where you can't just carry a pocket knife and a SAK, or a MT on your belt, or a Skeletool or Freestyle type MT in your pocket, or a.....

seriously, I can't place the SOG into a useful category in my mind. It looks like a cute novelty but nothing more.
