Tool Tales

The Shades are Saved!

My wife and visited Greece several years ago. Naturally, I took my trusty Micra which I had for a couple of years.

Standing in front of the Greek Parliament buildings in the bright Athens sun watching a guard change, I accidentally brushed off my magnetic sunglasses. They are not as carefully designed as the Leatherman products. So they hit the pavement and out flew both plastic lenses. D***!

I remembered my Micra friend had a small screw driver and I was able to re-install both lenses back into their frames very quickly. My little Micra tool saved the day.

Tell Us Your Tale
