I am hoping that LM took note of the ratcheting mechanism on the Snap On ratcheting screwdrivers when designing these. They are by far the best on the market.

I'm disappointed. I was hoping for some innovation. However, this explains why Leatherman has not hyped these two tools. They came out with a less functional Wave and Rebar just to hit a lower price point.

 :facepalm:
The right tool is the one you have on you

It's an updated PST  :woohoo: :like: :like: :like: and a half Wave :salute: :like:

I may have to pick these up  :o It will hopefully cut down on the weight from a Wave without losing a whole lot of the versatility :cheers:

Thanks for those pics gadgetman :hatsoff:

Does someone have the link!!!??

Imo both of these hit a massive sweet spot. The curl looks to be at least 2x as good as a wingman if the outboard blades lock.

And the bond....if it can come in near the 5oz weight range...it's edc perfect.

The Bond will be good for markets that don’t allow locking blades. The Curl’s tools don’t lock but the blade does so I don’t see the point of that one. I wonder if it’ll be like the KBX and be discontinued quickly. $80 price point is too high if a Wave is $99.

While looking at the pictures, I wonder:
- if the pliers head is a re-release of the 2nd. Gen. Wave's; they look similar.
-Maybe the tools are exchangeable with the Wave, Rebar, Fuse, Blast, or Kick's.  :think:

The pics look just like the older style plier head that the + plier head just replaced :salute: I would say that the place that makes them still had the molds :cheers: That was always a great plier head as well :like:

The tools (from the couple pics we have) look to be interchangeable with the Charge, Wave, Rebar, Blast, Fuse and Kick :cheers: If so then we will have a couple new chassis for modding :drool: :like:

I don't see the point of these tools other than giving people an option to harvest the interior tools they most like into the Wave+.

Kinda parts bin specials, but really nice ones, actually.


I'm a big fan of the Bond. I've long been wanting a real PST replacement. The Rebar is its spiritual successor, but not a direct replacement. Blades lock, and you have two extra tools (serrated blade and saw) at a slight increase in weight and thickness.  The Heritage PST was an overpriced tool intended for use as a shelf queen (and I bought two PSTs for less than $20 each within a month of its release).  The Bond, on the other hand, appears to be a true PST successor, updated to use modern components like Wave pliers and Rebar internals. You have pretty much exactly the same toolset as the PST (minus the extra-small screwdriver), and presumably a similar weight and thickness as well). The Wave pliers head (2004-2018) is an improvement over the PST's the original Wave used (and is even advertised as being larger and tougher), but still the same shape. For finer tasks, the somewhat square profile of Rebar and ST300 pliers doesn't work. It's got all the Rebar guts I like as well--such as the square shank Phillips, can opener with wire stripper, sharp awl, semi-skinner drop point blade, and that really aggressive file.  I can see the Bond stealing a lot of time from my Rebar and the full retirement of my PSTs, especially with the socket for the Free series pocket clip, which makes it a bit of a Sideclip and Kick replacement as well. I was ambivalent towards the Juice, the Leap was a great size, but the plastic handles sucked, it had room for twice the small tools; and I felt LM could have updated the platform to have a one-hand opening non-removable blade and shrunken Wave-style frame. I never had a Rev/Sidekick/Wingman. Pretty much these days, if I want a tool lighter than a Rebar, I'll just grab a Squirt P4.   The Bond will be a slim, lightweight full-size tool that carries more comfortably due to being clipped to a pocket.


The Curl isn't really attractive to me--it looks like the last-gen Wave cheapened into a budget model. It may have an awl, but it's minus two blades; ones I actually use more than the PE blade and file. Glad I picked up a 2017 Wave when my Lowe's was clearing them out reading for the (then new) Wave Plus.


These are probably Rev/Sidekick/Wingman replacements.  For sure, the Bond will be sub-$50; and probably priced similarly to the Rev. Guessing the Curl is a Wingman replacement, and again, priced similarly. So, since there is no Sidekick replacement yet, can we guess the Bolster will be similar to the Curl and probably have a combo edge blade and a Wave wood saw replacing the file?

Also, it appears the Bond and Curl will include a nylon sheath and will be in clam and gift box packaging:  So far, this Canadian distributor seems to be the only other place listing the two at present.

These 2 should disrupt or engage the sh listings for Kick family and gen1 Wave.
If the price is right, these two will be gold, both in sales and brand attraction. For us, heavy users/collectors it is not much, maybe a cheap replacement for a beaten up tool or a backup in a drawer, yet for newbies it will be thr entering gate to the multitool realm.
Ps: my2cents :)
Pps: seems like a reheated soup, but one that has proven tasty and succesfull, or as someone earlyer said, old parts bin mashup

Hah... thank you guys for sharing the pics  :like:

I like them, I like them.
However, I use a saw more than a file.

Anyhow, these two make sense to me... if the price is right. Personally I feel they should be sub 50$ though.

As with the Signal, the saw and file looks like direct replacements.

I wonder if these will come with pocket clip or if they have to be purchased separately? If separate, will they come with a sheath? I guess I am hoping no sheath, but yes pocket clip. Really stoked on these two tools, though. Finally, a new Kick. The MSRPs seem high (although everything is stupid expensive now) but in store they should be reasonable
