Description

Wave Alpha is the ultimate evolution of our best-selling multi-tool, built from premium materials and designed with features requested by fans worldwide. It’s the first Wave to feature a reverse tanto blade crafted from ultra-premium MagnaCut® steel—delivering elite-level edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. A new thumb stud makes one-handed blade access smooth and intuitive. Contoured G10 handles with topo-inspired machining provide a secure grip, enhanced comfort, and striking looks. Features in each handle deploy together, making it easy to select the tool you want. And for the first time ever on a Wave, we have included full-size, one-handed scissors—the largest cutting surface currently on a pliers-based Leatherman. Engineered from the ground up to honor the legacy of the Wave while raising the bar in design, materials, and comfort. Sheath sold separately.

It's not Leatherman's best...

"I own many Leatherman multi-tools—almost every model. This particular one isn't what I expected, especially considering the price and the hype. It doesn't open smoothly, particularly the main blade. After a few months of use, the tip of the pliers snapped off. It is very attractive and stylish, with a great look, but it doesn't compare to the classic, best-selling models."

— Sergio (2/5)

"Very handy multitool"

— Bader A. (5/5)

Robust, reliable, and looking good

"I had a wave for more almost 20 years. It is my old-reliable friend on the field. Recently I have to retire it and put into my personal gallery. While I am looking for a replacement, this Wave Alpha jumped into my eyes. I can see that I don't have to change my habit of tool using but with more style, so I purchased it. It is the same robust and reliable, and I have to say the big scissors is a major improvement. Looks like this Wave Alpha is going to accompany me on the field for next 20 years."

— Tsung W. (5/5)

Super Happy

"I am so happy with this purchase. I love the new Wave, and in orange it looks fantastic. The process of acquiring this Leatherman in this way (international shipment) worked out so well. Zero stress. Thanks so much guys, much appreciated."

— Francois N. (5/5)

Just awesome!

"I have many multitools, so far the charge TTI was my favorite but the new Alpha is so amazing! My new favorite one!"

— Dani S. (5/5)

Wave Alpha

"Very good multi-tool"

— Rudolph C. (4/5)

The Wave Alpha

"Although there is a mix compilation of impliments in the Alpha, it is not a very looked forward multi tool. With your new idea of not including the pocket clip and sheath it has become expensive to own a working tool. Surely if the missing items were part of the project more of your customers would not have raised the issue and more Alphas would have been purchased. Lastly for me in my part of this world I am paying even more than 200usd and also for postage without the mentioned."

— Lawrence T. (3/5)

Wave Alpha

"Excellent tool. Feels nice in your hands. Easy to use all the tools."

— Rene C. (5/5)

Fine tool, but not the best wave

"Fine tool, but not the best wave"

— Jose D. (3/5)

Better than before

"A little behind ARC but ahead of the old model with certainty"

— Vanildo M. (4/5)
