It's one of Swiss Tech's older, good designs and there was no discernible loss of quality when manufacturing was moved to China.Of course, if you bought them on eBay you could probably get three of them for $12.

Again, on eBay for around $20. Worth its weight in gold!
Yes, I carry and use both. The Utili-Key blade saves me from having to use my Rambler blade for everything. The Phillips is a little redundant but that doesn't bother me.

It's sharp but not that sharp...

Too late, bought the Rebar, Micra, and Skeletool.

The leatherman micra kicks the utilkeys ass in every way but easy of carry. good choice
Ya, you made a good buy there. Sorry for the clubbing. I love my Rebar and the Skeletool is awesome too
All three of the tools came in today.Here are my thoughts:Rebar: lightweight for full sized MT, awesome looking, nice locks, file scratches against handle, has horrible sheath, overall it's awesomeMicra: lightweight, lots of functions, nice scissorsSkeletool: why does it come with the sheath?, nice carabiner and clip, nice blade,
