Leatherman Wave Multi-Tool

Nice design, nice weight, nice build quality. This model has the tools I would be likely to use if I were in the great outdoors. All the sharp-edged tools are wickedly sharp. The larger tools are easily accessible and the smaller ones can be opened fairly easily with a bit of fingernail.

Una muy buena herramienta para tenerla en el bolsillo, es la segunda que tengo, la primera la regale, soy ebanista y me ha servido en incontables ocaciones.

Lost my old leatherman tool and replaced it with this newer model. The locking feature was a great idea. Don't go anywhere without it!!

When I bought this multi-tool I was really impressed by the blades. The utility knife and regular blade are both very sharp and large for a multi-tool this compact. In fact, the compactness of this tool might be it's most impressive feature. Downsides: The lanyard ring is not included in the Wave, it turns out it is either sold separately (where the heck would you buy that?) or comes with the "Charge" model of leatherman. The picture shows a lanyard ring - but it is not included!!! Also, why have the regular and micro bit drivers (which are simply flat head and phillips heads? If you're going to have a bit driver, you need way more than 4 sizes to make it worthwhile - maybe include a seat of 16 different drivers including hex and torx. The tip of the pliers also does not have a flat-grip space, it starts directly with small textured grip - maybe not a big deal, but I noticed it. On the plus side - The scissors are probably the best I have seen for a multi-tool :: both sharp and comfortable to use.

I purchased the New Wave because there are times when I need different kinds of tools and usually I'm without them. This is a great package, the normal blade is nice and strong and the locking features of the knife make it very sturdy and I don't have to worry about it coming back on me. It is a very smooth multi tool and so easy to handle. You really can open the blades with one hand and if you try you can open the pliers as well. So far it has been a very good leatherman and I did order from this seller and it was excellent service. The bit kit is pretty cool as well, others sell it as an add on for more but this entire package is just awesome. And for those of you who aren't sure, a nylon sheath does ship with the New Wave. I believe you will find this multi tool as useful as i do and it will be a great buy.
