FS: Leatherman Wave, new style, barely used. $55 shipped CONUS

This seemed like the perfect MT for me, on paper. But it has two weaknesses that ruin it for me:
1) Pliers joint is too tight; hard to use one-handed. I'm sure this will break in over time, but I just don't have the patience for that.
2) Wire cutter is not very good
(also, I have a Charge Al, which I like pretty well)
It's not that it's been abused or used hard. I got it new, carried it maybe a dozen days, and used it maybe half a dozen times.
The blade is sharper than from the factory. (I put a 40° secondary bevel on the narrow factory edge with my Sharpmaker) Everything works fine.
I did mod it slightly by gently breaking all the sharp corners with a Dremel grinding wheel.
I'll add pix later, but hopefully, my recommendation and feedbacks will give you some confidence, and after all, we all know what a Wave looks like.
Shipping outside the continental US (CONUS) will be $50 + actual shipping amount, and buyer assumes risk of loss or theft long the way, unless insurance is available and purchased.

Here are some pix:
The Tool Fan:
See how the very edge of the bevel looks shiny? That's the secondary 40 degree bevel, done with the ultra-fine stone. This thing is shaving sharp.

That is a cool looking sheath. Never seen one of those before
I knew my wife was a keeper when she transitioned from calling it a knife thingy to a multi-tool.

I think they call it the "Premium"
They offer engraving on the website, not sure if they offer it for the plate on the front?
I used one for awhile but didn't fall in love. The plate hits walls, or rubs on concrete if I'm laying on the ground.

Smaug, you still got this one? I might be interested, depending on how expensive shipping to Denmark would be.
