Quote from: mikekoz on May 13, 2016, 09:09:18 PMA smaller Surge is just a Wave. The difference in weight between the two would make no difference on a belt with all the other stuff on it that policeman have on it.The Surge weighs 12.5 oz. The Wave weighs 8.5 oz. The Signal weighs 7.5 oz. The Skeletool RX weighs 5 oz. The weight difference is significant. Police officers weigh 20-25 pounds heavier with uniform, full duty belt and bullet-proof vest. That extra weight probably reduces their running speed and succes rate in pursuit on foot. Therefore there is an ongoing struggle to keep all the carried police equipment as light-weight as possible. A five oz weight reduction on ten items sums up to a total of 50 oz. That will probably increase running speed.

Have you looked at the Gerber Crucial Black (142g)?- Strap cutters- CE blade- Phillips and flat-head screwdriver
Anyway, the Spirit S weights 210g and has both a plain- and serrated-blade and is overall one of the best MT. It also has long reach screwdrivers

After the looooooooong read, looks like the thing it's called a Wave?
Police Need Smaller Versions Of SurgeI suggest that Leatherman develops two smaller versions of the Surge for police officers, that weigh 5 ounce and 7 ounce. The lightest version of those would fit smaller police officers, like female and Asian officers, and older officers that may have decreased muscle power.
