Cool pic :cheers:
I am fondling a Mini. Not sure why LM discontinued such a beautifully engineered product. The fit, finish, and deployment are superb with no wasted space. I would love to see a reintroduction of this tool with titanium handles to make it truly a keychain tool. Every multi enthusiast should have at least one Mini in his arsenal.
Maybe add a Sideclip clip to the Mini. I had a quick look it MAY work, but I think the pivot will be a little to short. And one will have to file a small slot into the handle.
Have a look at the pics, they are not to clear, sorry about that.
Pete

0695 (blade handle) 0895 (file handle), thus making my oldest LM by nearly two years (my second oldest being a PST II that's an April, 1997 tool). No hard wire cutters, but it cuts soft wire better than any used LM I've bought beforehand. Took me more than a year to find one at my budget of below $20, and I found an online camping/survivalist supply place selling used knives, with many at excellent, and in fact, very low prices. I got this one, albeit a little rusty, and its sheath for $16. It's been pretty much my constant companion in the nearly a month I've owned it. Don't use the sheath that much (since it's so rare), but it's very comfortably carried on my belt--much better than larger folders and tools.

That's a nice, shiny Mini :tu:
G'Day Poncho,
Do you pocket carry the Mini with the clip? Does it work well?
That is a very good looking Mini!!!
Pete
Yes I do carry it with the clip and it works very well. Only when folding it back up you need to turn it pliers down to get the clip out of the way when folding it but other than that it is the best way so far I have found to carry it
That is the one I always carry and it has seen a good deal of easy use over the years.

Lucky for me it's the same seller who is selling me more of the old leatherman display units, I only asked out of curiosity if he had any of the old Leatherman BO tools...nearly fell through the floor when he replied "...only a Mini tool and a ST200 with the cap crimper head", both of which have been missing from my collection for years.
Just need to source the Camo Blast and maybe a BO ST300 CC (that would complete my ST300 set), and then I'll be happy.
I'm determined to tie up all loose ends in my collection before I consider whether I actually want to collect LM's new releases. I've already surprised myself by turning my nose up at the recent Skeletool releases.
My real weakness is the Wenger Rangers :drool:
3/4 of the time, mine rides in the watch pocket of my jeans along with a Spyderco Ladybug Salt Hawkbill, don't notice either. Which is amazing, given the Mini Tool is only an ounce less than a PST, but half the size, and beefier.

That pic reminds me of a job I once did as a student. A plumbing supplier's copper (and maybe brass?) pipes had gotten wet so my job was to wipe them all down with kerosene or something similar. After a day doing that and inhaling all those fumes, by the evening I was constantly farting kerosene.
Good thing I'm not a smoker.

Can you imagine an updated version of the !!!Mini!!! based on the Rebar?
My 2 Minis. One of it is unmarked, no date code and the "Leatherman & USA" are stamped on the reversed way. The left handle when extended, bends in more than the right. Happens to both of them. Normal for everyone?
I think mine may do that as well but not at the extent yours are :think: I have a couple that are pretty well unused, one of them is NIB :cheers: so I will check it for sure and see how it looks :tu:

You are correct TP, I would be careful putting any torque on that small file as well.

UPDATE....
Well, I didn’t like the split ring setup. The ring seemed to get in the way. So for now I just stuck this small cord around the shaft the extended handle folds on, on the file side.

It doesn’t get in the way at all and gives me something to grab to pull the Mini out of the slip.
We’ll see how it goes, IF I even carry it! Haha

Thanks Poncho! :waving: Had no problem taking apart the BO, I just applied a little heat to the head of the pivot screws with a butane lighter to brake the seal and screw can be unthreaded super easy ;)
I apologize if I placed this in the wrong thread. But does anyone have a pic or describe the box the BO version comes in? I have a NIB stainless finish one so I know what that looks like.
But when I bought the BO brand new it came inside the ES4 box with Mini Tool instructions, the name ES4 was Sharpied out. No small key ring.
Just curious. Thanks much!!!!
Hello all, i wanted to share my excitement with everybody and post my new BO minitool. It is dated 12/98 on one handle with 07/99 on the other. My satin is not dated, now I'm going to search all the info on these 2 variants due to their slight variances. Enjoy!!
Mine was NIB but was just one of the newer yellow LM generic boxes with MiniTool BO typed out on a sticker and stuck to the side ::) If need be I can dig it out but nothing really fancy about it :ahhh Of course it was sent from LM to MTO about 4 years after they were discontinued so that may be the reason for the generic box :salute:

Thanks Poncho! I’ll do the same as well and get a pic on mine. Bear with me as tomorrow morning a bit of a busy day.
I really dig the vintage look of the boxes of the stainless finish. A bit of shame if they used generic boxes for the BO.

My understanding is that the
"cleanskin" minis were the first version, followed by the
"US Pat Pend" version, then came the
"US PAT 4744272" without date codes, then came
"US PAT 4744272" with date codes (earliest date I have is 0395, latest is 0699), the last version had
"TOOL" on the pliers (I have 0102 and 0404).
Almost all the earlier ones had "USA" on the piers. I suspect that LM produced a small quantity of mini/PST pliers without "USA" in the early days for some reason (before the infamous "not made in the US court case) and just used them up (they are definitely not the more angular Japanese pliers)
There were some transitional minis that had "US Pat Pend" on one handle and "US PAT 4744272" (no date codes) on the other handle (just to confuse us poor collectors).
There are pictures around of a Japanese Mini, but I don't know of anyone who has ever seen one in the metal.
The cleanskins were often etched with promo brand names etc. on the handles, but Hoffritz seemed to prefer to etch their brand on the knife blade rather than on the handle. I have a cleanskin and a transitional mini with Hoffritz on the blade.
Good price, yes and it is also in like new condition (another reason I am excited) but that isn't why I am super excited with this particular one :D
Look at the handles :dd: NO WRITING on either side :ahhh :ahhh :ahhh This means it is a very early one 8)
Looks like Poncho has a $1000 cleanskin mini :D

I am really hoping I can leave it as is, but yes I may make it a blunt nosed mini.
I want to fit the bit exchanger there at the very least.

I think you will find that there is no room for a bit exchanger
After looking at it I agree. Besides this tool is the closest I have ever seen to perfection.
What I am going to do is file down the flat driver into a 2D Philips hybrid like in a Micra. Then it will be perfect.

So, a few months back I had posted a WTB in the tools wanted forum for a BO Mini Tool in any condition. I watched it for a couple of weeks with no replies other than good luck type responses. I then forgot about it thinking, well it's a pretty long shot anyway.
Fast forward to a couple of weeks ago when out of the blue I get a pm from forum member Billy Ruffian asking if I was still looking. Well being right before Christmas and after spending most of my funds on slipjoints I wasn't hopeful I would be able to afford one of these rare beauties. I replied that I was and what did you have in mind ? Billy replied that he had one in almost new condition with the elusive original Nylon sheath. :ahhh
My heart sank thinking that there is no way I'll be able to swing one at this time thinking it would be pricey. I replied asking how much he would have to have for it. Well to my utter surprise Billy replied that he would like to give it to me as it had just sat in his drawer for years and it deserved to be carried. :o
Well this showed up in my mailbox today all the way from across the pond :mail:
Thanks again Billy you Rock !

Good question Stitchy, i'm guessing that small one with the clip thing stuck on the end of it :dunno: hopefully we will never need to find out :tu:

Sweeeeeeeet :ahhh
Good to have a backup :like:
I love the idea :dd: and really wished that the :ahhh :ahhh :ahhh !!!MINI!!! :ahhh :ahhh :ahhh would get an update :drool:
:iagree: that they would sell as people are more into edc culture than they were when it had its original run and would be more than willing to accept a small sized MT that folded out to a full sized one :salute: :tu:
Congrats on getting one cheap :like: and great job fitting a bit driver in as well :cheers:

The interesting thing about this combo is the disproportionately huge leather pouch one needs to carry the Tool Adapter :rofl: (unless you go for the plasticky one).

I’m picking up this Minitool for USD20 and some, but it has a chipped needle nose. There’s no such thing as ‘sending for warranty’ here so I’m looking for suggestions on how to deal with the tip.
Grind it evenly into blunt nose like a Swisstool? Plier head replacement with xxx tool?
:facepalm: Sorry to hear it :oops:
No way to get your money back? :(
I was trying this out and it actually works!
Well, at least in undoing the plier side pivot screw of a Rev.
I'd be careful applying twisting force on that file, I've seem quite a few photos of LM Minis with broken files. :o
I think this would be a good combo:

Am I the only who got one to be a collector piece and not use it? Id hate to break it and not be able to fix it. They are just so darn cute.

BO is definitely a looker.BO is what I’m looking for, pretty much zero chance in the UK

Unfortunately, there was no sheath in the box. But I am still happy with the purchase :woohoo:wow, I never knew to open the inner handle to open the blade. That makes it much easier. Thanks for posting that!

You need to keep them in separate drawers, Poncho. They are multiplying :o
Thanks :hatsoff: I'm on the hunt for a BO Mini next...
Good luck :salute: they are available but none are cheap or even reasonably priced :facepalm: :oops:
:D
Rich, if you don't mind travel and possible gunfire I know where one is at ;)
