I really appreciated how Mike listened to user feedback when designing the MicroJimbo. Not many knife designers are willing to redesign their concepts based on customer complaints and suggestions as it might be a slight to their ego.

Thanks for explaining the shift to FFG and deep carry clip, and thanks for listening to customer feedback, Mike. I really hope the MicroJimbo will be a success and looking forward to Sprints and Exclusives in the future.

Dear Mike. I had bought 2 microjimbo from DLT trading to show my supports.

Can’t wait for the black blade version! Hope we have the drop very soon!

It’s really a great design.

When someone makes Smurf blue aftermarket scales for the Microjimbo that are shaped like the Yo1 scales, I'd buy those and call it a day :)
Had my micro for a bit now has any one hear if and aftermarket scales.

Look under the Made to Order Scales (2 scales) option, the MicroJimbo is listed as an available model. Highly recommended scales.
