I wish they would change the plier head on the TTi :think: Not many of us that need a cap crimper :think: I didn't buy the EOD MUT because of that :think: I guess that's what modding is for :think: But what plier head would fit? :think:

Wave pliers would fit. Am soooo temped to swap pliers from the Wave to this Charge.

Rebar sort of do but are wider and also more of a square profile - so there will be fit issues. especially with the scissors.

I was a bit surprised by seeing the new Charge TTi when I went to the LM site a few minutes ago. It looks very nice with the new scales :tu:

Despite having a more engraveable surface am still skeptical as to how they feel compared to the original.

If mine ever do break think will write SENTIMENTAL: Keep Scales on the return form. Sure would like the get the cut hook resurfaced.  :rant:


Am surprised that Leatherman did not put a cornered-cut hook in there now, like they have with the OHT.

Blast and Fuse pliers are exactly the same as well, might be a better option for picking up cheap mod fodder.  Do note that the Kick's pliers are a little different so I'd not recommend them. :)

Had boughten a Fuse for a house tool. Also have a Wave I passed onto a family member that sits on a shelf most the time. Go back and open it every so often. TTi is more for the grip and better main blade steel. Wished could purple-ize them scales too.

"Did Leatherman change the scales on the Charge TTi?"  Yes they did.  Check out their video from Shot Show 2013 posted on here in another post.
