Does anyone own the Victorinox MiniChamp SAK? I was considering (I know your all probably sick of hearing that word from me) buying this for my key chain knife.

How about a Leatherman Micra? The only thing it is missing is the tooth pick. <img src="images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I have a slightly different (thicker) one called the Midnight MiniChamp version...built in red LED light and pen with a small phillips bottle opener tool, 2 small blades, the cutting hook thing, a useless ruler blade and a useless curved fingernail pusher---cocaine snorter/potassium permanganate dribbler tool maybe.

I like this small SAK very much even though it contains some farily useless tools. The tiny phillips is perfect for camera maintance etc. I never use the red LED and would much prefer the toothpick, but overall this tiny SAK really shines for many uses. The very small phillips is my most used tool, the sheepfoot blade is excellent as a letter opener, coupon cutter etc, and the scissors are small but good. The hook blade is supposed to be an orange peeler but is inadequate to that task but I have used it to pull a stuck press fitting out of my faucet...worked great.

I much prefer the Leatherman micra scissors for continued use, but the blades on this SAK are vastly superior to the Leatherman blade.

Here is my absolute favorite small SAK

Real orange peeler and thin. This one is always in my vest.

Like Schwert, I ,too, have the midnight minichamp. I do however use the LED light and the ballpoint pen quite a bit. The tools are really useful, it has 2 blades, scissors, nice nail file but the three useless tools are the cuticle pusher, ruler/.screwdriver and the orange peeler. I don't know what to do with those. Probably a girl who does a nails would know what to do with this.

All in all a really useful URBAN tool

I agree with BlueFlame, I've had a few small sak's but they've all been eclipsed by the LM micra, of course there's also the squirt which is even better. But being newer costs quite a bit more, especialy in the UK. Which for something your going to carry on your key-ring is really a bit much. It's just a matter of opinion, but I would say that the small SAK's are not really worth it, Unless you can get them cheap (which you can, I've seen a few clasics for under a £10 before). My advice would be don't don't bother with the mini champ.
