As a SAK carrier I like the mini.  I've got a NIB one but am after a beater.

My NIB Mini best $40 I spent. As a user I think it has many failings , I found the bottle opener last night to be some what tricky to use . But like some of my other retired LM's I really enjoy handling it & looking at it. It shows us the path/progression LM has taken to reach its current tools , just like spoony, so eloquently put in his photo essay of the Mini. For such a small tool it expands so well & it feels so tiny but unbreakable , in way that a Micra/squirt never could. It would be really interesting to see LM revisit the Mini , it would be a much better tool if they built it now , but LM has  little reason too because of the success of the Micra & Squirt.

Look what they did with the Wave a vast improvement and the Pulse (although retired was a replacement for PSTII) wasn't it Plus the ST which is now the Core. I would love to see a new version of the  !!!MINI!!!

I'd like to see a new version of the Mini too. I would also like it in BO.

im thinking it would be nice imo if it had  a real 1/4 driver between handles,and a plain and serrated small knifes,and a diamond file to,nothing else maybe.

I traded both my minis - I never used them while I had them, but miss them now they're gone.


Ah well, leaves room in my cookie jar for a new tool!

I've actually seen one in Black , though I got the stainless variety.

I must say I'm a big fan of the tool.  It might not be the most useful multi but, as other have said, it is an interesting concept and an example of innovation (even if it wasn't that successful).  It feels very solid when opened up and the pliers work well.  Its more of a collectors piece really, but I imagine would pair up very nicely with a larger SAK and provide some useful portable pliers.

Rich.

I just was looking now @ my  !!!MINI!!!  and noticed that they fixed the plier head poking  out of the end by shortening the plier head itself now it doesn't  @ you in places where you don't want to seek medical atten. also the dates on it are 0104 on both handles
