I did the similar thing for my wife several years ago. Gave her a Leatherman Micra for Christmas. Got the obliglatory Thanks and eye roll. By the end of the day she had used it 3 times. I got a big hug and kiss later.

She liked it so much she bought 2 dozen Micras and gave them out as birthday, anniversay, whatever gifts to everyone she knew. First couple of friends were not sure what to do with them. Within a couple of weeks, everyone wanted their Micras before their birthdays.

Due to the airport restrictions, many of those people no longer carry the Micras since they are frequent flyers.
