How is the Wave+ different from the original Wave?

The main change is replaceable wire cutters, so a damaged cutting edge can be swapped out. The tool set and overall layout stay the same.

Does it have a locking blade?

Yes. All tools, including both knife blades, lock open and release with a slide on the handle.

Yes. Both blades sit on the outside of the handles and open directly.

The multi-tool itself. A sheath or bit kit is sold separately, so check the listing before buying if you want one.

Locking blades face carry restrictions in some cities and countries. Check your local rules before carrying it in public.

The Surge is larger and heavier with bigger scissors and a bit driver, while the Wave+ is lighter and easier to carry all day.
