Hi,<br>having leathermen :-) for over 10 years, I have also looked at other versions to compliment my Wave. First question I have is "what do you use it mainly for". I think this will determine if having other types of tools etc would be better than a crunch.<br><br>I know what you mean about a backup. I ended up buying another Wave and stashing it in my draw as I still think the Wave is the best because the one-handed operation can't be beaten. I also bought a Purple Juice as well...the reason is that it has all the tools of the Wave but also a Cork screw....it was the only thing missing.<br><br>Once you work what you 'really' need it for then I think you will come to an answer.
