Those multitool beach shots always make me nervous Dunc. :-\ I can read those evil grains of sand just like a book. >:( Every one of them are just waiting for a chance to get inside the works and start the grinding and galling process. :twak:


Do be careful won't you? :cry: :D


(Great pics by the way!) :cheers:

There was a bit of sand blowing about  :o But as this is where I live I'm kind of used to it . You should see my car  :( Summers worse when the kids keep dragging it in the house on their shoes and clothes .

I find bluetak great for removing sand from tools  ;) and a good flush out with WD40 . To be honest I've never had any excessive wear induced by sand from what I can tell . Although if you drop them in the sand it can take a bit of cleaning .

Do you really need Ti handle slabs ? and I'm going to stick my neck out here and say 95% of people think they need S30v or 154CM when in truth its more like 5% .What can a Charge do that a Wave Can't ? apart from empty your wallet quicker  :P Theres alot of people with super steel blades that can't even sharpen 420

All that said though I'm still after another Ti Charge  ::)

I've nothing against them at all . Both 154CM and S30V are superb steels and I have one or two knives with it .Wish I had kept my Ti from years ago . But really where money is concerned the Wave is an awsome tool .

I've never had a close look at an alx so I can't really comment . I don't like the Leatherman badge stuck on the handles , although I imagine that wouldn't effect function in anyway .

Speaking of which, does anybody know if the main blades of Charges and Waves are interchangeable? :think:

Great shots btw... :tu: :D

Nice shots Dunc  8) 8) 8).

Niko pretty sure Kwakster provided some lucky devils here some Charge blades for their Waves , I think slight sanding of the blade's flat section was required too fit the Wave  :think: :think: :think: :think:

What can a Charge do that a Wave Can't ? apart from empty your wallet quicker  :P

Survive a drop from 6" without bending the handles?

Open pistachios without the shells exploding everywhere?  :P

The Cutting hook and accessories (bits, pocket clip and lanyard ring) included are nice too :)

But apart from that "what did the Romans do for us"? ;)

Dave I didn't know bendy handles were a problem ,I've never heard that before.Wouldnt a Wave with a cap crimper head be able to open nuts ?

I'll give you the gut hook though  ;)

The Wave is a great tool, but the Charge is basically an evolved Wave ;)
