I don’t know why I haven’t written about the Leatherman Micra Multi Tool before. It is one of the few gadgets that are an absolute must have in any toolbox and indeed; any self respecting gadget nerd should not be without one. These used to cost hundreds of pounds, and indeed there are Leatherman tools out there that still do, but the Leatherman Micra Multi Tool costs under £25 and that make it an ideal Christmas gift.

It’s just like a Swiss Army Knife but better in my opinion and the Leatherman Micra Multi Tool has many exciting features that are handy in day to day situations:

• Scissors
• Clip-Point Knife
• Tweezers
• Nail File / Cleaner
• Flat Phillips Screwdriver
• Extra Small Screwdriver
• Medium Screwdriver
• Bottle Opener
• Ruler (Inch / Metric)
• Key Ring Attachment

The Leatherman Micra Multi Tool is one of those gadgets that you can easily overlook, like I did, but they are definitely worth getting. I wouldn’t leave home without mine and neither should you. Indeed, every household should have one of these in the kitchen drawer.

Now I don’t know about you but I was forever looking for a screwdriver and could never find one. The Leatherman Micra Multi Tool is too large to misplace easily so there’s no longer any searching. It is, as I said earlier a must have gadget.
