Our take on the Leatherman Wave + Black Pliers Multi-tool

The Wave+ is Leatherman's update to its best-selling full-size multi-tool, now with replaceable wire cutters. It packs 17 tools into a stainless steel frame, and the two knife blades, saw and file open from the outside without unfolding the pliers. The black oxide finish is matte and non-reflective, which suits people who don't want a shiny tool on a belt. It is a heavy, full-size tool built for real repair work rather than pocket carry, and it competes with the Surge and Charge lines on tool count and one-hand access.

  • Outside toolsPraisedThe blades, saw and file open without unfolding the pliers, which owners say saves time.
  • Wire cuttersPraisedThe replaceable cutters are seen as the main reason to pick the Wave+ over the older Wave.

About the Leatherman Wave + Black Pliers Multi-tool

The Leatherman Wave + Black is a 17-in-1 multi-tool and an upgrade to the classic Wave. It adds premium replaceable wire cutters to the Wave's features. The body is stainless steel with a Black Oxide finish, which gives it a matte black, non-reflective look.

All of the tools open and lock with one hand. Several, including the 420HC knife blade, can be opened from the outside without unfolding the tool. The handle can be laser engraved with up to 20 characters on one or both sides.

The black oxide coating process can leave residual powder on the tool. If so, wipe it down with a dry cloth.

Questions and answers

What is different between the Wave+ and the original Wave?
The Wave+ adds replaceable premium wire cutters and hard-wire cutters. The rest of the tool set is essentially the same as the classic Wave.
Can the blades be opened without unfolding the tool?
Yes. The plain and serrated 420HC blades, the saw and the file are outside-accessible, so they open with the tool closed.
Does it come with a sheath?
No. The sheath and accessories are sold separately.
Is the black finish durable?
It is a black oxide coating on stainless steel. It is matte and non-reflective, but like any coating it can wear at edges and contact points with heavy use.
Can it be engraved?
Yes. Up to 20 characters can be laser engraved on one or both sides of the handle.
What tools does it include?
Needle-nose and regular pliers, replaceable wire and hard-wire cutters, a wire stripper, plain and serrated 420HC blades, a saw, spring-action scissors, an 8-inch ruler, can and bottle openers, wood/metal and diamond-coated files, large and small bit drivers, a medium screwdriver and a lanyard ring.
