Our take on the Leatherman Wave + Pliers Multi-tool

The Wave+ is Leatherman's update to the Wave, the best-selling multi-tool in the line. It packs 17 tools into a 100% stainless steel frame, and every tool locks open. The headline change is premium replaceable wire cutters, so a chipped edge can be swapped instead of retiring the tool. The 420HC plain and serrated blades and the saw open from the outside without unfolding the handles. It suits everyday carry, campers, and tradespeople who want one tool for repairs. Against rivals like the Victorinox Spirit or Gerber Center-Drive, it trades a bit of weight for outside-opening blades and a full locking set. Owners rate it highly, and the common complaints are weight and the sheath being sold separately.

Questions and answers

What is the difference between the Wave+ and the original Wave?
The Wave+ adds premium replaceable wire cutters and hard-wire cutters. The rest of the tool set, including the outside-opening 420HC blades, carries over from the Wave.
Do the blades open without unfolding the tool?
Yes. The 420HC plain blade, serrated blade and saw are outside-accessible, so you can open them with the handles closed.
Is the sheath included?
No. The sheath and accessories are sold separately.
Can it be engraved?
Yes. Up to 20 characters can be laser engraved on one or both sides of the handle.
What bits come with it?
It ships with an eyeglass screwdriver and a Phillips #1-2 and 3/16-inch bit, which fit the large and small bit drivers.
Is it good for everyday carry?
It is capable enough for daily repairs, but it is on the heavy side. Many owners carry it on a belt rather than loose in a pocket.
