Probably, but that's better than being cheap.

I wonder if LM way move awl the CHARGES that were returned from retailers prior to the WAVE ALPHA RELEASE.

OR, they found another few cases of Juice XE6s. 
If I start and end the day above ground, it is a good day!

Hope yours is as good!

Is there anything on the website about it?

I’m a bit worried that only the US Instagram has had this so far.

Hoping there won’t be a backwards step after allowing people around the world to buy Garage tools from #004 onwards.

Who knows if this has anything to do with it.  Maybe not.  But here it is anyway.   :salute:

Following the most recent announcements, the REBAR and MICRA, do not be shocked if it is an old COLOR being applied to a new tool!

SS on a WAVE Alpha😉

Or, a the established SURGE in COYOTE BROWN! :facepalm:

Let us AWL be patient and promise not to be dissspointed :multi: :whistle: :popcorn:

My expensive week started today, when Col. Steve C. noted that Charges were on the Amazon website.  So I got a TTi for $139, though they are shown on the Leatherman website as retired.

 :woohoo:

Taking a page off of Case's notebook, might be interesting.
Went through the retired products and what would make sense, being lacking from their line and their competitor's line - I'd love a Mini Tool or a Juice. And please Leatherman, we know you read forums, make as many as possible for the year, as Case does. Don't make it 300 units batch that most of us would never get their hands on because they 10x on the secondary market.

I hope to see a Leatherman multitool similar to the Swisstool/Swisstool Spirit, with all the same internal tools. Unfortunately, this multitool does not exist in the Leatherman line.

I gave up waiting about 2 years ago, sucked it up, and purchased a MXBS Spirit and added a pocket clip for easy access in a crossbody bag I use for most urban excursions.

Still like and use my REBARs and SIGNALs for my heavy duty homestead tasks.

I got both the Arc and the Swisstool Spirit and it feels like the spirit has a much more well-rounded toolset. I think leatherman could really do a lot with the Arc as a baseline. If they ditch the micro bit driver, they would have space for the chisel and wire stripper.


Although the wording of leatherman's promotional page suggests its bringing back something old rather than something new

     It’s called from the vault because you are going to have to go to the vault at your bank to be able to buy it. 😀

Well, in this case, anyone at or near Portland, Oregon, willing to sell three Mini Coopers (preferably one each in red, white and blue), who's also tech savvy!?!?!? :think: :rofl:

This is what I’ve always wanted. Or if Vic put a bit driver on the Swisstool  ::) :pok:

I’d carry either in those cases. For a while now I’ve only carried my Spirt.

They’ll top it off with some teaser about the crunch the day before and our collective souls will all die a little

It appears that the count down will complete at 1200 hours EDT.

HIGH NOON for east coast USA.  (New York)

That is also 0800 hours for PACIFIC NORTHWEST, Leatherman’s home base.
If I start and end the day above ground, it is a good day!
