Thanks Doug, I'm looking forward to your report. I hope you had a good time at SHOT.


Now, that Leatherman Charge looks really nice, does anyone know the MSRP? <img src="images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Wow, look at the "Charge" pair. Titanium, C154, bushings, the big cast bolsters are gone, everything improved- glad I didn't upgrade to a "later" first-generation Wave. These clearly look like the new stars of the show.

Still, somehow, they made it weigh over 8 ounces. Sigh. And that's before you start loading up that sheath with all the accessory pouches. I should be buying stock in companies that make sturdy belts.

They look like the wave with different handles. Looking at the screwdriver, I wonder what was lost since it will be wider then the old one. I think I liked the old bit adapter better, I always wanted a racheting mechanism built into in though and have been searching for years for a small quality racheting screwdriver that I could cut the handle off and replace the bat adapter with. It looks like the new bits might be the short double ended ones as well which i have been unable to find either. I have a small 4 way screwdriver with those bits but all the ones like that in the stores are about 1/4" longer so the little spring ball stops just outside the tip and won't hold the bits in.

My Leatherman Wave grew legs again does any one know the release date of the Charge Ti?
