It could be possible with the large round ones on the blade pivots, but the other ones on the side of the implements are somewhat recessed.

If you value your Leatherman Wave, it wouldn't be a wise thing to try to unscrew the lower pintorx screws which hold the smaller implements and try to replace some of them.
Without specialized Leatherman issue tools it would be very difficult to put everything back together again in working order.

I may not know very much, heck i can hardly spell my own name, but take this from me,  :D

Yeah, I guess I'll order some specialized leatherman drivers along with my next order. You can get them at amazon for $3.00.

Dave I would take Kwakster's advice to heart ::) He works at one of the repair places for LM and a few other MT brands in his neck of the woods :D He is a wise and gracious man ;) :D :D :D
