Good thought... I'm also on VIC side, but leaning towards Wave... Think it will have it's place in EDC rotation...
Good review!
Great review and great end result!
cool review al
I'm feeling vaguely benevolent towards Leatherman, as their prices on shelves no longer give me cancer just by looking at them
i think alot comes down to your first MT ..... oh al ill have that modded extension out to you asap
Glad you found a LM you are happy to keep mate .Regards the pliers , I would say do not be afraid to use them just as you use your Vic pliers .
I had a Wave and a Spirit X at the same time. I sold the Spirit and kept the Wave.

Plus the scissors and file on the Wave (which I use a lot of) are superior, and the plier jaws are much more precise.

With ST and Spirit, it's that stupid Awl and Chisel. God they are useful.Quote from: edcgear on May 15, 2011, 09:30:04 PMIMHO I'll newer do that! ST Spirit and ST are benchmark for others... IMHO I think the Wave can beat Spirit if you know how to grind up nice chisel and awl. IMO, Charge tti is best all around MT with modified Awl and Chisel. You get OHOs, more drivers, and needlenose pliers, plus some more on Spirit and ST. Vics will still have superior, bottle and can openers but they only get little use anyways.
...Will it replace the Swisstool / Spirit as EDC? No chance!! There are many things about it that (for me personally) don’t match up to the Vic options, BUT it doesn’t matter!...

What really matters is that you find the tool that best becomes the natural extension of you hand.
