Wave+, 18-in-1 Full-Size, Versatile Multi-tool for DIY, Home, Garden, Outdoors or Everyday Carry (EDC), Black

This is what you expect from a Leatherman/similar multi tool: Heavy, kinda clunky, solid, very useful. It came as the proper product, well and safely and legitimately packaged (nowadays a risk here on Amazon I see so I mention this). All parts work and are in high quality function (remember, the sharps arrive sharp lol). If you’re new to these sorts of tools you’ll find it feels heavier and clunkier than you may find ideal when you first deal with it and wonder… but it’s like that for good reason and you get used to the feel of the leatherman. They’re built sturdy and while I’ve only had this one a very short amount of time I have had a few in the past of similar styles (lost, none let me down) I can assure this one is going to hold up to a lot of use. They take abuse well lol. It’s, of course, stiff in opening some parts but well greased. Again, common. Through use the stiffness of some parts will ease, depending on amount of use…. I needed something basic but also varied, I went with this model as it’s always a balancing act on multi tools of what parts do I and don’t I actually ever see myself using/needing and what am I actively seeking. As it’s largely for my camping needs this fits while coming along with a few things I may not use or may use differently than they are intended, as one does with tools haha; In addition to camping I randomly have to make repairs on the go to items and such (I’m a nomad who lives out of their backpack traveling around the world for years, you have to have fix-its at hand because who knows when or where something will break or how?)… so those extra tool bits that are honestly not likely to be used hardly ever may just come in handy at some point. Which was also the case when I was living in one place, so hey. If you’re like me and have that balance of “mostly for my outdoorsy life but here and there now and then, too” this style of leatherman I think is a good option. It’s always hard to narrow down multitools to the right one. So 5 stars: Despite Amazon arriving packages nowadays sometimes being dodgy, mine was fully legitimate. It is a good model for the “mostly for when camping but otherwise handy…” - not an EVERYTHING model and not a might miss something model. Very solid, well sharpened, sturdy hinges, good quality that I know from previous experiences will live up hard to proper use and additional abuse (my first ever was of this same quality back when I was in the Army and I assure you it withstood a lot more than average person's use… kinda awe inspiring, honestly). As I repeat, it is heavy and clunky and feels weird/awkward in the hand when using it (or at least it does for someone with my size hands… they’re admittedly small but I think this is a pretty universal feel lol). But that isn’t out of proportion for the tool. It’s the correct amount for the size, shape, and tools within this multitool… something to be aware of if it’s your first to expect and know it’s normal. If it’s not your first multitool of these kinds then know that this is one of the ones where the balance for the multitool is right. My 3rd or so black one, I think (as said, over the decades I lose a lot of stuff between moves and life) and it’s absolutely lovely to look at.

This has been my EDC for almost a year and I am completely satisfied. I use this tool everyday, mostly the knife and screwdriver. The knives come sharp and stay sharp with use. All of the tools swivel out and firmly lock in place. And are easily taken down to fold. The pliers and cutters are precise, strong, and durable. I love the screwdriver and precision screwdriver Philips and flathead combo, comes in handy. The size of this is perfect for me. Its small and sleek enough on the outside that I can just keep it loose in my pocket without it snagging on anything. The only downside is with the black finish, when first bought, it is COVERED in black residue. After a while of wiping it down and eventual use, it had been cleared away. Other than that, best multi tool i've ever owned. Well done, Leatherman.

I love my Leatherman! It’s a Wave+. I love it so much I bought my wife one last Christmas! She always wanted to borrow mine for a package opening, quick pliers, screw, etc so on. She does a lot of walking with a friend and wanted her to have at least something for self defense too or more likely just a tool on her route for cutting, crimping, whatever! And now i get to keep mine and know where it is now!! Great knife, I think it’s better quality and has more useful tools than some of my other utility knife brands. I especially like the pliers, scissors, can opener and philips head. I would highly recommend it to just about anyone that has any tool need around the house or remotely. A gotta have!

Great multitool, using it for 2 years of military service. Very useful, solve mane problems in the field. High quality made, last long

I've owned a lot of multi-tools over the years, this one is my favorite.

Very nice and sturdy

This is my third Leatherman now. First I had the 300, which was stolen out of my glovebox by a cop. Sigh. Then the Surge which was great, but a little too big. The wave is near perfect. 2 minor complaints. I broke a couple pieces on the Surge and sadly there's no way to replace just the parts. It would be nice if you could order the little pieces from the company. Secondly, that sheath is hot garbage. Awkward on a belt or in your pocket. Hard to put the leatherman in the sheath because the nylon is always blocking. I bought a leather one from a third party for my surge, which worked great. I'll be doing that again for this one.

Great a must have.

The best line up multi tool product from Leatherman.

Amazing product as expected ! quality is top tier

Not cheap and not as good as the original wave (which I lost) but it does have a 25 year warranty.

Se ve bien, navajas muy filosas, todo funciona bien

I've had 3 Leathermans. This might be my favourite. I got the black one. ...btw, You don't have to buy the spray on stuff to protect it, in my opinion. ...I went out of my way to buy the spray stuff. And before applying it, I played with the Leatherman for 20 min, opening/closing all items, and actually your hand oils remove the black stuff, or the black stuff rubs off on your hands. ...So just use the thing, wash your hands like a decent human, and your black Leatherman will be fine.
