Why do I love the Micra so much?
« on: July 29, 2010, 04:14:05 pm »
Just got a new blue PS4 yesterday and is perfect but I still prefer my Micra. I don't know why but I know I can through the Micra in my pocket with my keys, coins etc and it won't get beaten up. I just love it!

Which is why Leatherman need to bring out a SS PS4, or maybe titanium.  :drool:

I agree, as it stands it doesn't beat the Micra for me.

The only thing I don't like much on the PS4 in the file - it's a bit rubbish for nails.

I never liked the Micra. Between the tweezers, the nail file and the scissors replacing the pliers it always looked more like a make up kit accessory for females than a man's multitool to me. Though frankly I think LM puts a lot of weird stuff on their pocket tools, at least compared to the Gerber Vise which has something that resembles tools and not grooming equipment. But of course, that's just my view, everyone's needs are different  :cheers:

I gotta say, I love the Micra too.  It's just a great little tool.  It's amazing how much utility is packed into such a tiny tool.  No, it doesn't have pliers, but it's got the best MT scissors on the market.  I pair mine with an ST300 and it's a great pair for edc.  I'd like to try a PS4, as sometimes a tiny pair of pliers would be handy, but it seems like I'd be giving up so much to get the pliers that I doubt it would  stick around in my edc. 

Long live the MICRA!!

I love my micra too, it's small enough to always be there, but big enough to do what it needs to.  The scissors are great for opening packages and trimming annoying hangnails. I bring mine everywhere except school.

I love the micra too. I want to collect different colors of Micra if my budget will allow.

Amici,
The Micra is just a great tool period, SS construction, and just the right size to get away with using for EDC in most situations. Now try that with a Squirt, although I sometimes EDC it as well, I sometimes have my reservations about it..

Cheers,
Serge
