 Do not buy it! January 31, 2006

This is one of the worst multitool I've ever gotten with nothing but cheap steel, cheap nylon, a couple little slots that you can't fit your finder into. This tool hurts my hand when gripped hard. Buy a good tool instead of this one.

This tools not worth buying. If you are looking for a Multitool keep looking. This thing is too heavy, the knive is too small, the screw driver twisted off when I used it once, the wire cutter made it thru one cut in 14ga wire. This should be called a "one use tools" "OUT".

Although now retired, I spent my adult life in the Army (infantry) and law enforcement. A good multitool is indispensable in either profession. Over the course of my careers, I had numerous multitools. None of them compared to the Leatherman Wave.
I received a Leatherman Wave last year as a gift, just in time for Hurricane Katrina. I spent some months in and around the disaster area doing rescue work, and can't tell you how many times I used this superb tool.
Both of the knife blades, plain and serrated, were heavily used and I found them to be up to any task. They were razor sharp and kept a keen edge through the toughest jobs. The pliers and wirecutter performed very well, too. I occasionally used the saw blade and found it to be useful, as well. I used the screwdrivers from time to time and, although not as good as a dedicated screwdriver, they performed better than I expected.
All in all, I am pleased with my Leatherman Wave and would not hesitate to highly recommend this superb tool to anyone in need of a tough, durable multitool.

I'm not a professional handyman, but I start every weekend by putting the Leatherman on my belt. I use it for everything from replacing batteries in children's toys, to slicing apples during a picknick. I am very impressed by the blade itslf, as it seems sharper and easier to maintain, and easier to open than any swiss army knife I've had. The screwdrives are helpful in a pinch but I would not rely on them for every task.. they are limited by size and their shape. The plyers are great for everything from holding small nails for hammering to pulling jammed CD's out of my car stereo. Other than the the mediocre screwdrivers, I think this a greeat tool for weekend warriors.

the first day i recieved this tool i tried to unsrew a large screw with the large screwdriver and it snapped at the base. i had the earlier model, which was great but the redisign seems to need a little re-engineering. i would not recommend it.
