This makes me want to buy a Leatherman tool even more now...You guys who get the bits and take apart your tools, be sure to document everything here on the forums..
All in all, the security bits are probably cheap insurance against folks mucking with what is considered to be a finely crafted and reasonably expensive instrument. Then, there are folks like us here that will just go the extra mile to tear them apart anyways!Def
Actually if you buy the extra bit kit (total 42, for wave and charge) from LM, you will find the bit you need. But again, you have to destroy the pole in the screw, anyway, it doesn't the screw and funciton at all.
Got a notice from Chad's that the bits shipped yesterday USPS. I guess it took a couple weeks from Wiha in Germany.
5-star Torx bits finally arrived yesterday. I followed Tom's lead, and ordered them through Chad's ToolBox. The IPR10 bits fit the Leatherman fasteners perfectly.Bob
Bob, mine just arrived from you. They are mega-sweet. I'm breaking those Waves down in 2 minutes flat. Once I get them all parted I will rebuild several out of the parts. Thanks, buddy, I really appreciate it.
