I dismantled my Micra because the blade broke (with pic)

Does anybody have a spare blade that I can buy? Multitools are quite expensive here and a Micra cost 2,400.00 pesos or 52.00 USD equivalent.

Thank you.



I don't have the right tools so I used two pairs of long nose pliers. I was extra careful not to damage the screws and not to scratch the frame.

Nice one Sawman (I was just scratching round to see if I had a spare Micra blade, but I don't)!

I used to come here a lot.

$300 for a Charge here, though Norway has salaries to compensate for it. 255 bucks in the Philippines has to be a big percentage of a month's salery

The RRP here is about the same. :-\  A bit of on-line shopping would get a better deal though.


BTW nice one Sawman. :salute:

Took a macro shot of the broken blade of my Micra. There's a very small cross section area where it broke. I will be very careful next time a use the Micra blade.

That shouldn't happen again Eddie because I included (see below) a Gerber EAB and a couple packs of replacement blades in your package.  Next time you're cutting air hose this should get through like butter  :tu:

Wow, a knife with relaceable utility blade.

Isn't it also a money clip, Sawman?  Thank you again for your generousity.
