I just got the Wave a few days ago based on lots of good stuff I've read here. It replaced a dual carry combo of a Swiss Army "fieldmaster" model and a S&W SWAT auto folder. The thumb "knob" on the scissors has already broken off and the non-serrated blade has gotten progressively harder to open with the thumb - in spite of oil. Do I just have a lemon?
would I be better off with a Charge Ti? it looks like similar features but lighter. any reason if I'm returning it not to go with a different model? both wave and charge have the tools I want from my previous carry combo(one hand opening, screwdrivers, saw, scissors and two blades). I'll miss my toothpick, tweezers and "hook" from my SAK but I can live without those!
what do you all use the two side pockets in the sheath for? I found I can fit two of the following: a sharperner, a micro maglight, and a ferro. I'm leaning towards the ferro and light since w/ two blades I'll never need to sharpen in field.
Kevin - The front space is right under the velcro. Not real big, or stretchy, but it's there.
And I have had nothing but wonderful experiences with Leatherman. Carried one most of my Army career. I think my first one was purchased mail order when I was in Germany in 1985 and have had at least one handy ever since. That original one rides in my wife's truck. She claimed it. Have a belt holster that holds a leatherman, a sak and a AAA maglite and a pen. Never left home without it.
A buddy broke his doing something stupid one time and it was replaced no questions asked.
