2HO Leathermans.

[Chako]

It isn't a secret that I have tried for some time now to get my hands on some of those 2HO Leathermans that are made only for the Danish market...with no success. I emailed Leatherman a few days ago, asking how I could get them on this side. A Mrs Sanders from Leatherman International Customer Service responded.

Now this is interesting, and I shall quote her response...

"Thanks for your inquiry and your enthusiasm about our knives. Indeed, the 2-handed tools are only available for purchase in Denmark and maybe soon in Australia."

Of course this hasn't got me any closer to buying any of them. Sigh.

However, Multimat, if you are willing, I may have to count on you if the last part becomes reality.

I really hope they're not going to pull the OHO models off our shelves....

No probs at all mate, I sure hope they are not going to be getting rid of OHO  . I do not like 2HO at all 

[Chako]

I did not realize they were thinking of making 2HO models for the Australian market. If it was mentioned on this forum beforehand, I must have blinked at the wrong time.

Yeah, hopefully they won't toss 1HO models out to sea if they do start getting the 2HO models. 

[AHB]

I do not like 2HO at all  

Hey.. What's not to like..?      



I certainly don't hope they'll introduce them in Australia, then the Danes wouldn't be "Special" anymore...    
The Surge has been discontinued along with the outside nail nick though..  

[DaveK]

Don't worry Allan - you'll always be "special"

[J-sews]

They have special places for special people like Allan...







More specialness:

Not that special, Bob..    


The "White Whale" of 2HO's..  


Btw, Bob... Do you want to trade yours back...?  

[DaveK]

The "White Whale" of 2HO's..  

Which is Allan? 

[AHB]

The "White Whale" of 2HO's..  

Which is Allan? 

The Original Wave. I've contacted about every seller here and they're all out years ago.. One did actually go through all his drawers while talking to me on
the phone.. And I've only seen one for sale in nearly the last year and that's Bob's in top of the picture...  

[DaveK]

Ah - I see. Maybe the 2HO idea only came along towards the end of the original Wave's life?

What are the date codes on those Bob, are they late (i.e. 2003 ish)?

[AHB]

Mine's the one in the bottom of the pic and it's stamped 0902 & 1002..
But I haven't given up finding more though..  
Bob's is stamped 0602.: (old) Waviness

[DaveK]

You know how these things go. One will turn up when you have no cash

I'd say you're more likely to see one than me though

If one should turn up, I'll just have to explain to SWMBO why food is overrated..  

[DaveK]

Well, no old Wave, but here's my humble collection



... and this one is still my favourite:

[AHB]

Strange, I have a folder just like that..     
Great pics Dave..  

[J-sews]

Btw, Bob... Do you want to trade yours back...?  

What, you mean this old thing?





No way!!

Well Bob,

You're a machinist, you could mill a coupla OHO holes in that thing pretty easily...

Heck, I betcha you could make it match the regular old Wave.

Ack!! Blasphemer!!

[Magnus]

All these pictures feel like a weird nightmare where everyone has stolen all the holes.

And another one for you, Mister W..:   

[AHB]

The Danish answer to the Camo Juice.. 

Three 2HO Original Waves..

[MultiMat]

So Allen 32HO Original Waves  , you gonna make some tool fool happy or you going to just tease them  .

I am so glade I just like OHO LM's

[Chako]

Teasing seems to be the order of the day. 

[loepis]

My first LM 2HO .. LM Charge ALx 2HO,
and maybe, i'm just going to have this 2HO type , cause i think it's too hard for me to find the Leatherman 2HO for other type.
but if it's possible for me, i want to have a LM Charge TTi 2HO... someday 





 

[DaveK]

Very nice loepis. I did get to see a 2HO ALX (or maybe it was an AL - can't remember now) but it belonged to AHB - I was very taken with it!

Well done for finding one for yourself

[AHB]

Not teasing at all Chako, just showing what I was lucky enough to get my hands on.. 
I've just seen a single piece for sale since I joined here, so I'm very glad I managed to get two of them brand new..

It was indeed a ALX Dave.   Btw can you OH yours loepis.? 

[DaveK]

I can OHO the Wave btw - the one with the new shaped blades

Thank you Dave,
I got a lucky won the bidding on eBay several month ago for this 2HO ALx,
Before i won it, i had ask seller to make sure it's really 2HO ALx as shown on the pic, and i asked him .. is it come from Denmark?
I asked it cause as i read on this forum, this 2HO version is for Denmark market only.
But seller said that he purchased this ALx in US, and he said maybe it's an early stock with the nail nick on the blade, not as the later version ..   
And finally, i got this sweet toy 

 

It was indeed a ALX Dave.   Btw can you OH yours loepis.? 

Yes Allan .. (sorry before, i hope it is not wrong to call you Allan )
I have try it many time to open it with 1HO, just need a little push with my thumb on the blade to open it.
However, it is not an easy as 1HO version, but it's unique for me..and IMHO, the blade seem more strong with the nail nick.. hehehe 

[AHB]

That's pretty good actually. I haven't been able to do that with any of mine yet, but that's probably just lack of motorskills...  

Here's a pic of the "later" version loepis..
