There is a seller on Ebay with 11 "NEW" old style Waves for under $50us with the "buy it now" option.

Probably only if you buy in bulk. I made a $35 offer and it was automatically rejected.

Ben's favourite tool I'm told.

Post by: psul71 on April 30, 2009, 01:51:16 AM: I agree! I used to carry one of the originals on my duty belt at work, but ended up replacing it with a new style Wave a few years ago. I ended up giving the original Wave to my brother when his Charge was stolen out of his truck and have missed it ever since. I also prefer the old style to the new. This one will be going back onto my belt when it arrives.

I "appreciate" the old Wave because it was a really innovative design when it first came out, but as a tool I think the new one is vastly improved. What do you like about the old one that makes you go back to it psul71?

Ahhhh sarcasm.......it's a beautiful thing ;) .

There are a few things that I prefer on the old Wave. First would be the scissors. I found the old style scissors much easier to open/close/use. Second, I preferred the tip shape of the serrated blade on the old Wave. Third, I prefer the length of the phillips driver to the exchangeable bits.

Post by: psul71 on May 02, 2009, 03:17:08 AM: Wanted to caution anyone who was considering bidding on these looking for the "original" style Wave.

When I got home from work today there was a package waiting in the mailbox. I opened it up as soon as I walked in the door and found.....a "new" style Wave ??? . The Wave was in new condition and was shipped wih one of the new nylon holsters. Needless to say I am a bit disappointed. I'm sending the seller an email in regards to this.

I'll post an update when I hear back.
