Boy, I must have gotten a good one. I have had a Wave since it first came out and I havn't broken anything on it yet....and believe me, it gets a lot of (ab)use since I work part time commercial construction. I have a Swiss tool, but I find it much to big and bulky to carry around everywhere. Plus it doesn't have scissors, I can't open the blades one handed or quickly, and I can't open the pliers one handed. I have a Gerber scout, but I find the pliers don't get enough torque and they don't get large enough, and I still can't open the blades one handed or quickly. I love my Wave, it gives me everything in a convienent package that I can get working quickly. I wouldn't be without it. <img src="images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />
