 Leatherman Strikes Again September 21, 2005

I have been using Leatherman tools for the last 6 or 7 years. I started with the original Multi-tool and it was OK, but it wasn't until I moved to the Wave that I was hooked. Now they release the "New Wave" with a built in bit adapter and all locking blades. These bits are indispensable. If you have one of the new Multi-tools your sheath is designed to hold the bit carrier as well as your tool. This is a well designed family of products and everyone should give it a look.

This is a must for owners of the Surge, New Wave, and XTI leatherman multi tools. I currently am using the Surge every day at work. I'm a maintenance tech and with the bit kit it saves me from having to drag my tool bag (70 lbs) every where I go when responding to calls. Also saves time espically when using the allen bits and figuring out if it's metric or standard.
Innovative addition to one of the greatest inventions in recent history! August 23, 2006

I'm a long-time Leatherman fan. I began with the original, upgraded to the original Wave, then to the newest Wave! I'm a electrician & maintenance man and I use my Leatherman tool every day. I won't leave home without it! This tool kit makes my new Wave Supertool even more versatile. I also just ordered the tool adapter that enables you to utilize 1/4" hex drive bits - what more could one ask for? I've tried the others, but have always returned to the Leatherman brand!

At first I was disappointed to see the new style. I can see the locking mechanism weaaring out and bits just falling out of the Leatherman. Leatherman's never let me down in the past, let's hope they keep their good reputation with this new design. The usefulness of this bit set goes almost without question. I carry it with me all the time and it's proven itself on several occassions.
If you want to fix almost anything almost anywhere, this bit set is good to have.
Great Bit Kit and great service from Leatherman May 25, 2006

I have the Leatherman New Wave and absolutely love it. When I found that there was a bit kit available I got quite excited, as I often need other bits for fixing various things.
I thought the $13 price was reasonable considering what it would give me and what it would let me stop carrying. When the kit arrived I noticed that two bits were missing. I'm guessing that they slipped out of the holder (some of the bits are pretty loose) and then worked their way out of the box then the package. Today I called Leatherman and they are sending out bits to replace them at no charge.
As others have said, I rearranged mine to have the most commonly used bits on the same card. The card fit perfectly in the back of the leather New Wave sheath when turned so the bits are away from the tool (there's an elastic compartment for just such a purpose).
I would have liked to see a better choice of Torx bits, but aside from that I'm quite pleased.
