BEST FOR KEYCHAINS

MICRA®

ZMW1.470
Color: Arctic

Customize
Full details

HIGHLIGHTS:

  • Weighs less than 2 oz.
  • Features easy-to-use spring-action scissors
  • Packs a knife, screwdrivers, file, and more into a compact design
  • Available in a variety of colors (including Cherry and Arctic Blue)
  • It’s customizable (for that personal touch)


GOOD TO KNOW:

The Micra does not have a pair of pliers.

WHO IT’S FOR:

Micra is good for everyone, not just mom. It’s practical, portable, and perfectly sized. That might be why it’s one of our most popular gifts. Available in eye-catching colorways, the Micra can be customized with words, images, and artwork. (Pro tip: making it even more special.)


WHY WE PICKED IT:

If your mom is new to multi-tools or isn’t big on carrying tools, then the Micra is the perfect choice. At less than two ounces, she will barely notice it on her keyring. But it will be there to snip loose threads, open pesky packages, or file that broken nail.

WHO IT’S FOR:

For those looking to step up from a basic pocketknife and who don’t need pliers or full-size features. The T4 is easy to carry in a pocket or a purse, so it will be there when she needs it for everyday problem solving.


WHY WE PICKED IT:

Designed with everyday carry (EDC) in mind, the FREE T4 packs must-have tools into a design weighing less than 5 oz. Thanks to FREE Technology all tools lock into place with a confident, reassuring click. No risk of broken fingernails when using the FREE T4.

Of course, everything is one-hand operable (except for the removable tweezers). The FREE T4 is made from a durable combination of 420HC stainless steel and glass-filled nylon. Ideal for EDC, the FREE T4 is a high-functioning tool in a convenient, packable size.

THE MINIMALIST EDC

HIGHLIGHTS:
  • Sleek, minimalist utility
  • 154CM stainless steel straight blade
  • Includes only essential tools like pliers and bit driver
  • Available in eye-catching colors
GOOD TO KNOW:

The minimalist design means the Skeletool CX is missing functions found in larger multi-tools, like files and saws.

WHO IT’S FOR:

Anyone looking for a lightweight, low volume everyday carry, pocketknife or multi-tool with essential capability.


WHY WE PICKED IT:

Skeletool CX packs only the most essential tools into a smart, lightweight design. At just 5 oz., this multitool will fit comfortably in a purse or a pocket, so it’s always there when mom needs it.

The Skeletool CX features a 154CM stainless steel straight-edge blade. This premium steel stays sharper longer even if mom spends a lot of time outdoors.

The CX is a great pick for an upgraded pocketknife or everyday carry knife. And the pliers and bit driver will round this tool out with our most used tools.

Bonus: We’ve recently made the CX available in multiple colorways, so it’s easy to find the perfect match for mom’s style.

HIGHLIGHTS:
  • Our only multi-tool that includes a ferro rod, emergency whistle, and sharpener
  • Available in 9 different colorways (so style meets substance)

GOOD TO KNOW:

WHO IT’S FOR:

Signal is a great choice to prepare your mom for her next adventure, whether it’s camping trips or DIY projects.

WHY WE PICKED IT:

The Signal is one of the most popular tools, and it’s easy to see why. It has the essentials like a combo knife, pliers, and bit driver. It also has some unique features like a ferro rod (to spark fires), knife sharpener, and emergency whistle (great for any activity that’s out on the water). This makes the Signal the perfect tool to keep in the car for emergencies or to slip in a backpack for hikes and camping trips.

Signal is available in nine different colors, so it’s easy to find one to match mom’s style. Keep it classic with the Black and Silver or Coyote Tan. Or pick a bright color like Crimson or Aqua that will be easy to find if it’s dropped on the trail.

Keep mom prepared for all life’s adventures with her very own Signal. Don’t forget the blade can be customized with a personal message or artwork.
