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 leather sheath. 
The Wave includes several screw bits for added versatility. |

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 Tool Group and its History of Quality
In 1975, Leatherman Tool Group founder Tim Leatherman was inspired by leaky pipes and a cranky car on a budget trip to Europe -- and thus the idea for his first pocket survival tool was conceived. 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.

Leatherman 830039 New Wave Multitool with Leather Sheath Reviews
It resharpened, but that is not the objective. Great convenience in a small package. The one problem is that the temper on the blade is not great. A cheap knife would have done better. I used the blade to remove some stapes and I got big nicks in the blade.
Not only is this a well made tool, but this is the only Leatherman that has the exact mix of tools I want. I have owned (darn TSA and my forgetfulness) other Leatherman products, and while they have all been very well built, none had this mix of tools, it is perfect and I am buying another two right now, one for my wife and a spare for me. I carry mine with me all the time and have found it very useful.
It is solid and more comfortable than my previous multi tool This product exceeds my needs and my expectations.
Well made and have enough tools to handle most small repairs. I found out the hard way how sharp it is. It's a good idea to use a little lubricant to make it operate more smoothly. As other reviewers have said, this also makes a great gift for the handyman/handywoman or outdoorsman. No problem if you use the belt sheath though.
If I had to complain about anything it is that it's a little too heavy to carry comfortably in your pocket all day. I have several of these around the house and the cars. I have also given many as gifts. If you don't have one of these, you should buy one. Also, be careful when opening the blade with one hand.
I also have the Skeletool which is much more pocketable, but also has fewer tools.
C.Tarlton Roswell, Ga. I have used Leatherman tools in the past and always had good luck with the product. This new tool does not let you down. It is a strong and reliable handy tool to have around. I keep the New Wave in the SUV and have used it on several jobs without having to go find several tools to perform one job.
