I was looking for a sleeve to fit a Leatherman Squirt P4. On the P4, with the exposed edge of the file on one side, it can really chew things up in a pocket. I found that Leatherman makes a sleeve for the Micra, I decided to see if it would fit the Squirt. The Micra sleeve does fit the Squirt, the fit is very snug. I'm not sure what the durability of the sleeve will be, with such a tight fit. But the sleeve is cheap enough that it would not bother me to need to replace it every few months.
I've also found that the Micra sleeve is a good fit for a single AA battery, or a pair of AAA batteries. So it's a cheap, convenient way to carry batteries in a pocket without risk of shorting or abrasion. Of course, the sleeve is not waterproof like a pill or match case, which limits it a bit.
The sleeve is too short to fit a 1xAAA light.
The model number for the sleeve is 930902, just Google Leatherman 930902 and you can find it at a bunch of vendors. At Outdoor Pros, it is only $1.10. Here is a listing at Amazon, for $1.41. The problem is, all these places charge quite a bit for shipping. I bought mine from Lighthound, his price is $3.99, but the first class shipping was much less than other places. And I got a free keychain light out of it. (Hmm, I now see it is out of stock at Lighthound -- did I buy the last one?? Edit: Back in stock at Lighthound as of 9-6-09)
