I might poke around eBay and see if there are any interesting Micras floating around. :ahhh

I'm still following here even though I had to bow out for this one. 
I've been banned from the eBay since the boss lady retired but I picked this one up some time ago.   Appeared to be a commemorative from the ISA of some sort.

I've seen people say that early Micras cut much better than recent ones.
I'll do a little compare and contrast tomorrow.

My limited experience with paracord, I have found scissors to be a fail. 
I use scissors more for finish work. For cutting a smaller piece off a hank, I typically use a blade.

Day 2

I opened a lot of mail at work today.  About 20 minutes of opening mail in a long unattended inbox.

So far… I like the small blade, dare I say, better than a Victorinox Classic. However I do find it bothersome to open up, especially when doing so several times.

At least I have memorized where the blade is within the tool.  :facepalm:

I look for the tweezer, and then know its on the opposite side.  Folding them halfway open, like in Post #113, makes it handle a little more like a "real" knife too.

Many owners of the Micra do not notice that blade is a chisel grind blade.
For that reason it is my belief that it hold an edge much longer and outperforms the SAK Classic at staying sharp for more cutting.

I have had mine for at least 8 years, and not sharpened the blade yet, only stepped with the leather.

Can not say the same for my Vagabond. I can get it shaving sharp and it stays that way, until SUDDENLY it is not. 😜
If I start and end the day above ground, it is a good day!

Hope yours is as good!

DAY 3

So a sad day yesterday, it was my father in-law's funeral, but a nice way to remember his life, talking to his friends and the family, having a huge number of photos on a slide show and 16 hour play list of his favourite music, compilation of both painstakingly created by my wife.

Typical of a wake, there was too much food and drink, so this morning some calming lemon balm leaf tea... harvested by the Micra, before heading to the office.

God bless you dad, I'll look after your little girl always xxx (my wife and best friend)

Day 3

My favorite implement on the Micra, the Pick/File!

Great for tracing out wires on a panel, picking a chunk of meat from between a tooth gap, and then digging gunk from inside a slip joint liner or under your finger nails.  The file is long enough to make the working edge of a nail smooth with only a couple passes.

It is darn near ideal for what ever its actual purpose.

@ Gra_Farmer - pass on a nice supportive hug to your bride and my sincere condolences!😢.  Loosing a parent is a rough spot in the road, thank you for your efforts to smooth that series of bumps for her and the kids.

@ MTSAK - In my house back in the day, that would heard or smelled by awl and a HARTY INVITATION to get back up and enjoy the party.
Today even if I hide such sweats, when I get a hankering for niibble, no problem I live alone… NOPE, take the bag from my hiding spot, and WHAT?  It’s been open!  I did do that, inspect and find ONE! only ONE piece…  🙃 really
If I start and end the day above ground, it is a good day!

Hope yours is as good!

Day 3

Put some towels in the laundry and one came out with an errant string hanging off the edge. It was about half the length of the towel, so now I’m worried that it’s unraveling.   Snipped it off with the scissors.

Scissors are a must-have on my multitool, and the Micra has good scissors.

DAY 3

So a sad day yesterday, it was my father in-law's funeral, but a nice way to remember his life, talking to his friends and the family, having a huge number of photos on a slide show and 16 hour play list of his favourite music, compilation of both painstakingly created by my wife.

Typical of a wake, there was too much food and drink, so this morning some calming lemon balm leaf tea... harvested by the Micra, before heading to the office.

God bless you dad, I'll look after your little girl always xxx (my wife and best friend)


(Image removed from quote.)

So sorry to hear your news.

It can't have been an easy day but, at least he can rest in peace knowing his little girl is taken care of  :salute:

Godspeed.
They don't like it up 'em!
