What is the most popular leatherman multitool?

Hi there all.

Want to know what you guys consider as the most popular leatherman.

For me it will be the Wave due to the weight and size and versatility.

So feel free to voice your opinion or opinions.

I think you're asking what each persons favorite is and not the most popular. Popularity is not debatable in this instance at least according to Leatherman website. The wave wins.

Wave, probably followed by the Micra as a close second at present.   

Before, it was likely the PST.

Love the PST.
But when using it every 2 min it annoys  me opening it every time.

Wave is still the most popular hands down. Almost every site, review, or blog that is about multi tools mentions the wave. Admittedly it's hard to beat. In the same corner with the Spirit. If the Sog can fix the internal tools of the Powerlock that would put it in the upper echelon no question. And I almost forgot about the MP600. Definitely should be in that conversation. But of all of those the wave is still the most known.

I agree, based on sales the WAVE is most likely the most popular. 

Yet, I suspect 70% of the WAVES sold are in drawer, collector's box/display, never to be used. 

The MICRA may be the most used, at a reasonable price point it should have good sales number and sized to be pocket carried.  But difficult to replace a SAK classic.

The better question should be which Leatherman plier tool is worked harder by its owner. 

For me it would be my ST300.

PS: My WAVE, a gift, is in a gun safe, afraid of loosing.  Very special meaning.  If I find a used one it just may see EDC duties.   
A REBAR is on my list as well for same task.
