EDITORIAL REVIEWS | Product Description This best-selling multitool has been redesigned, with larger knives, stronger pliers, longer wire cutters and all-locking blades. Manufactured from stainless steel, Wave uses a large bit driver-switch bits for more versatility, using optional bit set (Item# 199142, sold separately). Large knives with big thumbholes can be opened easily with one hand. Strong scissors can cut cloth, plastic and paper. | Amazon.com Product Description The Wave multitool's compact folded shape hides a wealth of tools and blades within. The Wave Multitool From Leatherman: Better than Ever The most popular full-size Leatherman tool is now better than ever. Larger knives, stronger pliers, longer wire cutters and all-locking blades make the new Wave an essential piece of equipment for any job or adventure. The pliers have been redesigned to withstand more than double the previous squeezing load, and the new bronze bushing makes one-handed knife access a smooth operation -- plus, the one-at-a-time blade selection function means that the tool you want is the tool you get. The versatile Wave comes with a durable and attractive nylon sheath. The Wave includes several screw bits for added versatility. Expand your Wave's capabilities with the optional bit kit, pocket clip, or lanyard ring (not included). User Features This Wave model has four exterior blades that can be accessed even while the tool is closed. (Note: the knife blade can only be opened when the tool is closed.) You can open the blades with one hand by placing your thumb in the thumbhole at the base of the blade, and rotating until the knife is fully extended. This securely engages the locking mechanism. The saw and file both have nail nicks at their tips for easy access. The locking mechanism is marked with a padlock symbol on the tool itself. To unlock the blades, all you have to do is press the locking mechanism toward the handle until the blade slides past the lock. Accessing the interior features is a snap, too -- just grip the handles and rotate them open. Each interior blade can be opened by using the nail nicks. The scissors extend in the very same way, and they lock into place for secure, safe use. And of course, it's easy to change the tool bits, too. Just remove the bit from the driver and pop a new one into place. Optional Accessories (not included) Expand your Wave's capabilities with the Bit Kit, offering 21 double-ended bits. Or, you can add a pocket clip and quick-release lanyard ring. What's in the box: The Leatherman Wave multitool and a nylon sheath.

Since then, Leatherman has become an internationally recognized company with hundreds of employees and a wide variety of durable, versatile, stylish products. Created with bold designs and truly rugged construction, Leatherman products are a perfect addition for tool kits, emergency sets, and glove compartments everywhere. |
CUSTOMER REVIEWS (Average Customer Rating: 4.5 based on 56 reviews)
| Best Tool Ever by C. McMahon 5 Stars September 14, 2009 The Leatherman Wave is the best tool I have ever purchased. Its many uses and has earned a place on my belt all the time. I cannot go anywhere without it as it is so useful. Broken sprinkler no problem it cuts right through the PVC pipe. Need to fix a vacuum cleaner belt the Leatherman Wave is the only tool you will need. Take apart the vacuum with the screw driver and cut all the strings that get wound around the brush. Need to take apart a computer? It has got you covered on a laptop or a desktop. I find new ways to use the Wave each day and I am impressed with the quality of the tool.
Do not believe people that say it can be opened with one hand. The blade is razor sharp and I can see someone hurting themselves pretty bad trying a move like that.
| | Fernando Leatherman by Luis Fernando Li-elguera Quispe (Miami, Florida United States) 5 Stars August 27, 2009 This is a very nice product, very useful. I my work, it help me a lot. I recommended this product.
| | absurdly useful and well made by Matthew Dyer 5 Stars July 12, 2009 What a wonderful little tool! You strap it only your belt and as the days go by you find yourself using it more and more and more. It's just so easy having it right there.
The tool is extremely well made, with no machining marks or slop. The blades are quite sharp and I love the one-hand opening feature. I also love having the option of using the straight or serrated blade. The incredibly fine screwdriver has been quite useful to fix eyeglasses or to work on toys and electronics. Sometimes I find myself taking it out and popping out the blades or tool just for the sheer joy of handling an incredibly well made product.
The only possible quibbles are that it doesn't have a bottle opener and that it's rather heavy. I have a Skeletool CX, which is much lighter, but I always take the Wave because I love the extra tools.
I should point out that this was my first multi-tool, and after LOTS of reading I settled on the Wave because I read that it was the most popular Leatherman and was viewed as their benchmark piece. There are many other models, designed for cooks and gardeners and tech guys and so forth, but after much research I found that the Wave best met the needs of a regular fellow like me.
For about $60, this is a killer graduation / birthday / whatever gift.
| | Excellent Redesign by Elias G. Souaya (Washington DC) 5 Stars July 11, 2009 Leatherman substantially redesigned the already successful Wave, and did a terrific job. They added a much needed "fine" screwdriver which flips over to give you both a fine Phillips head as well as a fine Flat head. The larger screwdriver also flips over to give you both Phillips and Flat heads. In addition the utensils now "lock" in place when opened so no more danger of catching your finger when applying pressure. They also added a metric (cm) and an "english" (inch) measure along the handle which come in very useful. A truly great tool!
| | Leatherman Wave tool by James L. Warren (Jackson, TN) 5 Stars July 05, 2009 This is outstanding product. I've owned one of them for a number of years and decided to order a second one to keep in my truck. Very well made, high quality material and workmanship.
