There are seven tools with scissors in the range of Leatherman keychain multi-tools, These are the Micra, three in the Squirt series and two in the Style series. For those wanting both a stove and light that will operate off a small gas canister, Coleman once produced what was probably the lightest lantern option.The scissors on the Micra are a very slightly different form to those on the Style CS and Squirt S4, more akin to the scissors found on Swiss Army Knives, however all three are equally efficient at cutting, though the Micra scissors can open at the tip when cutting thicker items. No more significant than a standard door key, this multi-tool will come in handy for most of your DIY needs while resting on your keychain.
