4.0 out of 5 stars Great, but... August 4, 2010
Color Name:Black|Amazon Verified Purchase
First, I love it. I won't review the actual tool as it's great and I have nothing to add. I've owned/used countless leathermans over the years and I love the tools.

But...

as another person has mentioned, the finish on this tool is less than ideal. It comes off on your hands and anything you touch for the first week or two of use. In addition, it's easily scratched during this time. No, Neither effect the function, but it's also not what I expect from leatherman. Concerned that the one I received didn't have a chance to finish curing, I emailed Leatherman (see below). I'm not sure why they can't cure the finish before sending it out or use a different type of black finish (i.e. gun blueing).

It's still on my belt and I love it, but come on leatherman, fix it.

-----

Hello,
Thank you for your email and your interest in Leatherman Tools.

The black coating is applied on the exterior of the tool. It does come off on your hands especially at the beginning. The oils from your hand do help to set the black so the more you handle the tool, the more the color is set.

The black is on the surface only, so scratches will show. The black tools were developed with the goal of keeping reflection off the surface with military applications in mind where scratches are perhaps less important.

I hope this helps.
Best regards,

Rachele ******

4.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful--with one nagging flaw... April 22, 2010
Color Name:Black|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is essentially the perfect multi-tool. The functions included here will cover all of your bases without crowding your available space, which seems to be all-too common among multi-tools. The craftsmanship is outstanding; it looks and feels as durable as it gets. And now finally a matte black finish turns a clumsy looking gadget into a beautiful machine.

However, herein lies its particularly annoying flaw. Right out of the box, the finishing coat on this tool left black smudges and marks all over my hands, especially where lubricant was applied. Now, overlooking the sissy/feminine jokes sure to come, that's just not okay with me, especially if those smudges transfer to whatever I'm working on. Luckily, within half an hour or so of thoroughly cleaning it with moist cotton swabs, the black finally stopped getting on my hands. To keep the joints turning fluidly, I reapplied some WD-40 from their pen dispenser.

After all of that, I couldn't ask for a better product, but I wouldn't want others to run into this same issue without due warning.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Leatherman ever January 4, 2007
Color Name:Black
Got this for my husband for Christmas. He has had a Leatherman for the last 25 years, and had had his old one rebuilt twice! It was lost cutting brush last year and he really missed it, so I bought him this one. He LOVES it, says it is the best ever built. Special locking features add safety (and he is a safety nut), and the matte black finish is great. Only drawback, he doesn't like the case much, says it's indestructible but too bulky. Oh well......You will like this thing!

4.0 out of 5 stars Awsome multitool, minor problems. August 12, 2008
Color Name:Black
This multitool is awesome. Ive had it for almost a year, and I carry it everywhere i go. The nylon pouch is stylish, however the velcro is JUNK, the flap doesnt stick anymore, and im going to have to resew in new velcro. It has a good assortment of tools, and they are all easily accessible except the scissors; they changed the design from the previous version of the wave, and it is more cumbersome to fold out.

The black oxide finish is holding up well, no rust anywhere. One of the pliers is a bit stiff but i believe it is due to poor manufacturing tolerance. However, there is one problem i had with the tool; there is a small tab inside that the pliers are suppose to hit during closing but they are very weak and mine broke the 1st time i closed it! Now the tip of the pliers jams up against the tools inside when you flip it shut. It's difficult to describe if you dont have the tool in hand.

5.0 out of 5 stars Leatherman Wave Black Oxide Black Finish October 6, 2012
By Mike K
Color Name:Black|Amazon Verified Purchase
Wow!...What a Great Multi-Tool! I have been looking for just the right EDC Multi-Tool(Every Day Carry)and I found it in the Leatherman Wave. I have purchased many multi-tools and have found that the Leatherman Wave has everything I need. I purchased mine a week ago and have used it many times already. It Does the job! (FYI..The knife will be packaged loose inside the box w/ sheath. I mean loose...no bubble wrap here)

The Wave comes with a sheath...If you are not a fan of wearing a sheath; I would recommend buying the pocket clip w/ lanyard loop kit (Leatherman Wave comes w/ a built in lanyard loop) at the same time you buy your Leatherman Wave. I would do this because after only two days of wearing the sheath on my belt; It felt like I was wearing a brick on my belt. I bumped into everything with it and was trying to find a comfortable way to keep it from catching on my seat belt. I could not find a comfortable way to wear this sheath. I ordered the pocket clip w/ lanyard loop and installed it on my Wave. Wow...What a difference. I can clip it to my front or back pocket and I can hardly feel it is there. I carry this now every day over my regular knife.

OK..Now on to the finish...Black Oxide. I love this finish. What a great Ops look & very COOL!! This is the cheapest way to finish a military weapon / tool to provide some kind of protection against corrosion. I wouldn't think this would be a problem, because this baby is made from stainless steel, but, stainless steel can spot or stain if you don't take care or clean it often. The Black Oxide finish will allow you to go a little longer without oiling or cleaning.

When you get your Leatherman Wave w/ Black Oxide finish ...you will get "Black Hands"..I mean the finish will rub off on to your hands. No worry!
