Maybe my original post was not too clear.  English composition was not my strong point back in school.  I agree that my Wave is a well designed tool.  That is why my SAK of 15 years is now sitting on the sidelines and not my EDC.  But what I am trying to accomplish is not turning a Wave into a Frankenstein-custom-made-multi tool, but just simply seeing how many more features I can add to it and keep it the same dimensions.  By using a small magnet and a sewing needle, I have added an emergency compass to my Wave.  Also a splinter remover, balloon popper, holding the magnet in the pliers to retrieve a small screw that dropped in a tight place, or whatever you may need a magnet/needle in your daily activities.   It's kind of like buying a new 4x4 truck, and adding a tool box or trailer hitch.  Just the little things that can make your usage a little better.<br><br>Next, maybe etching little tick marks onto the spine of the file in 1/4" or 5mm markings for a ruler?  Drilling a 1/32" or so hole in the smallest screwdriver to make an awl?  <br><br>I hope Mr. Leatherman is not reading this.  Grin.
