Anyone care to post a pic of a side by side comparison of the original and this? I have ordered one but mine will arrive only in ~2 weeks time.

 :P

This is a pic of the damascus RT and ATS-34 RT with the mini in the middle.  Glad you asked, I didn't think about a comparison picture.

Should we expect any versions with a hex bit wrench instead of the oxygen one?

There wil be a mini Ring Tool with a 1/4" hex instead of the O2 wrench.  Should be completed by July.   I don't know how effective it will be to use untill I try it put it to use.

Just received my mini ring tool in the post - great bit of kit and still big enough to be usable. More orange for my collection! Photo below to show comparison with my full size ring tool.

Looking forward to this one. :tu:

On a side note, I still can't figure how to sharpen my RRT... :-\

I have used a tapered round diamond sharpener that was made for serrated edges.  The are a bit pricy but work pretty good.  If you want, you can send it back to me with $2.00 in the package to pay for postage and packaging and I will sharpen it for free.  I never charge to sharpen the knives I have made for customers.

The little Victorinox round sharpener (which comes with one of the leather sheaths) works great.  I suspect a rolled up piece of 600 or 1000 grit sandpaper would work well too.

I've tried with the Leatherman mini sharpener rod but the result wasn't something to write home about. I also tried with the Spyderco screwdriver/file thingy but it was too wide to fit in the RRT's blade space. I'll give the sandpaper a try but given the LM sharpener is diamond coated, I wouldn't expect any better results. :-\ FWIW mine is the MT.o damascus version.
