Plus I also think it's a shame that they don't make the tool that started it all, or at least a direct modern equivalent. BTW I now need to go dig out my PST for carry tomorrow.

What about the Micra has changed, other than the "USA" being dropped from the design? And frankly, yes, I'd like to see a modern PST III... and the Vic person I am, I'd pick one up.

Nothing, and that is the way I hope they keep it and my point. Same with the PST. I don't want a modern version of it, I would like to see the original version. Make both the PST and Micra their traditional tools that they continue to sell along with their more technological advanced models.

I agree , I've always said this and I think they should call it the Classic range .Dunc
I've mixed feelings about this.On one hand, you have the fact that there are 10,000,000 million PSTs out there somewhere (even if half of those have perished, it's not going to be that hard to get hold of one of you wanted), and I'd like to see all of the manufacturers being innovative and going forwards, not backwards.On the other hand, I still carry a PST / PST II / Sideclip etc from time to time, and I was really pleased when LM went "back to basics" with the Core and the Supertool 300.I guess whatever happens I'll be happy enough therefore

I just would like to see them to always make the PST and Micra from a traditional standpoint. I would like to see Victorinox make an economical version of the "Heritage" aka the original Soldier's knife.
