I'm looking for an Original Leatherman Wave, 1st Generation.
Preferably with "Leatherman USA" marked on plier.

(I must be the only member of MultiTool.org without a multi tool)

Thanks,
Dave.

Hi Dave,

I have an 0401 1st gen wave. It has Leatherman USA on both sides of pliers head.

I posted pics when I got it (from the shpock bootsale site):

The original has a nice simplicity I appreciate, but I've now got a next Gen Wave, and prefer that because of the locking internal tools.

I've cleaned it up with WD-40 and 3-in-1 oil. It's still got some rusting stains on the pliers and serrated blade. I can post more detailed pics if you are interested. I am in UK, London.
