I am looking to buy a mini multi tool but not sure whether to get a Leatherman Micra or Sebertech M4. Any suggestions.

Thanks

I really like my Micra. The SOG CrossCut and CrossGrip are also cool little tools. I don't think you can go wrong with a Micra, I got mine on sale at a KMart or something for $15! Haven't dealt with the Sebertech one though.

Oh yeah, and welcome to the forums. I didn't recognize that you were a totally new member! This is a great place to learn about all kinds of cutlery related stuff.

You can try using the Search tool. http://www.bladeforums.com/cgi/search.cgi?action=intro&default=57

You'll be able to dig up all kinds of great things. I think there was a thread on mini-tools in the Review section.

Good luck and have fun,

I, too, carry a Leatherman Micra but have also bought a Sebertech M4. The Sebertool's tools are very small and difficult to use. The Micra is far more practical, user friendly and smller as well. That is just my opinion

I like the Micra the best of the SOG, Seber and cheap Chinese crap.
 
I haven't seen a really positive review of the Sebertech M4 yet. Of all the rest, I find the Micra the best.

Which you choose depends on whether you want scissors or a plier. I prefer the plier with the wirecutter to a scissor since my SAK has a scissor. The Micra is a nice minitool, though. I also prefer the M3 to the M4 because I found that the tools on the M4 were difficult to deploy and next to impossible to unlock to retract them. After I tore up my finger anils trying to release the lock, I had to use needle nose pliers from my Bucktool! The M3's small screwdrivers are easy to use in comparision. However, I will concede that the SOG Crosscut/Crossgrip and the Micra are easier to use. If only there was a Micra with a plier.
 
good choice, you can go look at vampiregerbil's site on defense with a micra
