New Leatherman

[Strider]

Recently noticed over at www.equipped.org on a review of some US show some new tools/improovements leatherman are making to thier products. :-D I havent seen any of these on sale over here..nor even are they mentioned on the leatherman site...
link to new leatherman (plural leathermen?) is..
http://www.equipped.org/shot_show_2004_knives.htm

What are people's views on these, or on leatherman tools they already own?? (or other multi tools you may own/have used-Gerber etc..?)


Cheers,
Strider.

which new leatherman tools/ improvments are you refuring too? As i cant find any on equipped that are not already avilable in the UK

could you find the paragraph stating this and cut/paste it into a post or give more details on where in the site you found the infomation you refure too

The leatherman wave is absolutly fantastic I am a perfectionist kit freek and i can find no fault with it and carry it everywhere, it is one of the rare bits of kit for which i cannot think of a sensable improvment

I think Strider was refering to the Charge Ti and those that come with it. I think it will be a while before they are available in the US, let alone the UK. They are mentioned on the Leatherman website. I can't remember the URL, but it is on a page with PDF's of lots of the leatherman tools :-?.

on the link ..

quite a way down, there are pictures and a brief review or the new wave(new pliers n such) and these two models with titanium handle scales-the Charge Ti and XTi...
If these are already available in the uk, please show me where :?: ..as i havent seen them..and on the leatherman site i cant even find mention of them.
I hope I'm not mistaken :!:
but i dont think i am.. also there are (on the above link) 3 other models with plastic rimed grips for comfort the ''Fuse'', ''Blast'' n suming else..

I too have and love my Wave, but these new(i hope) ones look nice too!
Cheers, Strider.

Odd/interesting shaped bits those bit holders seem to take! A better idea in the long run though than having to replace the whole thing when the screwdriver bits (crosspoint especially) get damaged!
