You don't need a receipt to do a warranty claim on Leatherman tools, I have done 7 warranty claims so far and currently on the fence about the 8th, as the model in question is obsolete.

Leatherman don't like you repairing your multi tools, just send it in.

Email Whitby, explain the fault, fill in the warranty document and post the tool and signed document. In week you will have a new tool sent to you.

I agree, they normally replace the whole thing unless requested (such as engraved sides etc).

Replacement parts, especially waves, are available on etsy (uk sources). Lots of folk modify tools, so most common parts are there as well as upgrades on blades

Any blade sales on Etsy have been banned. Some might slip through, but most have blocks now.

At @TeeDee I take it you were looking for an s30v blade for the wave?

Officially, no. But you'll find them on sharp & pointy thing forums. If you're just looking to replace a broken or damaged blade on a one for one basis, talk to Leatherman, they'll do it free. They replaced my Wave (broken small screwdriver, notched blade, damaged and loose pliers) with a brand new tool without quibble.

Edit: I also sent them an email to say that I thought the leather pouch on my (very early) Charge was too tight and they sent me a nylon one, again FOC and without questions.

You don’t need a receipt, Whitby’s will replace it no questions asked. Sometimes you may receive a reconditioned one in exchange. I’m on my 5th replacement.

I did a warranty claim on an obsolete model (I didn’t know was obsolete) and I got sent the updated version - which was a shame to me as I was a bit sentimental about the old one because of who gifted it to me :( I wish I had kept it as it was only a broken screwdriver blade :(

I have done 3 warranty claims on 2 different leathermans and I haven’t had to produce the receipt either
