Leatherman Wave + Upgraded 2018

[abcf]

Just ordered the wave + directly from Leatherman. They were running a special, 20% off for the tool with the leather sheath, $79.96. They call it the heritage wave plus. I have a surge in my get home bag with the 41 piece bit kit and extender. I'm putting together a new edc pouch with the Vanquest huge maximizer and the wave + will go in that. Hard to beat Leatherman's quality and 25 year warranty. I broke the tip of the flathead screwdriver on my surge trying to pry something and they replaced it and shipped it back to me in less than two weeks. Excellent!

Have had and used the Wave for years, always frustrated that I would pull the serrated blade instead of straight edge; just realized the serrated one has marks at the top of the back side of the blade to extinguish this. Just found out about the lanyard hole from this video; thanks for the video and I hope my comment helps save others the frustration!

I’ve had a wave for 4 years and I am just learning about the key ring!

I'm wishing they would bring back the original tool design (not in the form of a $275 collectors edition). It was thinner than most of the newer designs which have fatter handles and therefore it was more pocketable, but still had most of the tools.

I wish they would make a Wave with that magical steel that was used to forge Excalibur. You need the absolute best steel there is for a multitool so that you can do all those chores that a multitool is regularly used for, like chopping and batoning wood, killing wild hogs or melting down the multitool and using the steel to build a suspension bridge that fully loaded 18 wheelers can drive over. Who cares if it's way overpriced? You need that top shelf steel.

Not sure how they can upgrade perfection .
But your review has convinced me.

I don't leave the house with my Leatherman Wave+ in a sheath on my belt, so used to it if I repair or fix something at my workbench with all the tools I need handy, I still grab my wave+ many times.

I’m so happy that they have the replaceable wire cutters. That’s one reason I preferred the Rebar. I find the Rebar is good for working around the house because of the longer Phillips and awl. But for all around utility the Wave wins. I often need that jewelers screwdriver and scissors.

I think all they need to do now is make the pliers spring-loaded and that's it - the perfect multi tool. One of my tests for any multi tool is can you wire a plug with it? In the UK the answer is usually no, because you need that needle flat-head/Philips screwdriver to complete the job. The Wave passes that little test

Great review! I actually prefer the non-removable sheaths, I've found that over time the snaps loosen up and my sheaths will pop open while I'm working.

The bottle opener is a can opener as well

I just ordered the new Surge and all the accessories. All the bits, extention for the bits, extra blades etc. Stoked. Almost as stoked as when i received my Large Chris Reeve Subenza. The extra weight wont bother me.

I am in love with the wave🤩😘😍❤






Bought it today.

[davemi]

I own a wave plus and purchased an extra bit kit, bit extender and a larger sheath that accommodates all the extras as well as the tool it's self I also have a 1/2 " by 6 " ferro rod that fits into an elastic sleeve on the side of the larger sheath I definitely recommend the bit extender it accommodates leatherman bits and also standard driver bits

Nice video. Clear, straightforward and a good display of the tool.

[MrDirtybandit]

What they should have also changed besides the plier head is to get rid of the serrated edge blade, and put the large scissors from the surge and replace small scissors with an awl

[interestedinstuff]

You probably knew this, but people always demo the pliers forward of the hinge. Behind the hinge is where the wire crimpers are. Cheers mate.

Watched a few other videos after picking this multi-tool out and you are the first one to show the lanyard ring! Cool! Will definitely share this!

I got the two tone wave last year and love it, I don’t use the wire cutters enough to be concerned about replacing them but I would like the sheath

[samuelrgonzales]

I have own 2 leatherman before owing the leatherman wave +. Love it, and will not be returning back to the 1st gen.
