I finally got myself a Micra last Friday. It was sitting on a peg at the local hardware store, all dusty and forlorn. The Date codes are from '08, and it was brand-new in the blister pack. All I have to say is WOW! How the heck did I get along without it for so long? I carried a Classic or a Vic Executive on my keys for years, and the Micra has already replaced them on my keys. Great little too!l

Bought one of these for $25 at a Bass Pro Shop, knew it was high but I get to play with instantly so I bought it.

Complements a Surge nicely (fits right in the Surge's sheath's side pocket) and doubles as something I wouldn't be too unhappy to lose/have taken away/stolen etc.

Count me in.  I bought a used one from Ebay so that I could do the key mod, but tow of my keys have chips, so that project never got off of the ground. 

It is in very good condition except for the blade.  The edge was uniformly rounded from the tip to the base almost as if someone had don it on purpose.  After a few minutes with the Sharpmaker the edge was restored with the addition of a small bevel on the flat side of the chisel grind.

I've got a few Micra's, it was the second Leatherman I bought.

A Micra story I shared a few years ago:

I was in a club with a friend one time, and he knew my affinity for knives and tools. It was a 95 degree day, so I was wearing loose shorts, and had left my ST and folder in the car, just carrying my Micra. He asked to use my knife to remove a hang-nail, and when I handed him my Micra he started to laugh at the "tiny little tool" I had. Well, it only took him a couple of minutes of using the scissors and knife blade for him to say: "Man that is really handy, you got an extra one I can have?"

I carry a Micra so often it's easy to forget about it until it's needed.  Still one of the best keyring sized tools out there and has better screwdrivers than any similar sized Leatherman.

given the popularity of the Micra, the popularity of the Squirt P4 and PS4 and the fact they've just come out with the Style PS you'd think they might have at least tried a pliers based Micra.  :-\
