Leatherman Wave multitool

I have always carried around a Victorinox Swiss Army Recruit pocket knife.  It is compact and light.  It goes easily into my pocket, dangling from a strap tied to my belt.  It has been very useful on many of the camping trips I took.  The can opener proved itself useful a couple of times when I forgot to bring a can opener along.  The knife obviously had been used more than a few times to cut open food packages, make marshmallow sticks, slice hotdogs, cut bacon strips, etc.  The Victorinox knife is super sharp--I have cut myself a couple of times already.

I thought yesterday I might just need a multitool, one with a plier.  I decided to purchase a Leatherman Wave multitool.  It is not a cheap multitool but with 25 years of warranty, I like to think that I'm paying only a few bucks a year.

The Leatherman Wave multitool has received exceptional reviews.  It is a little heavy to carry around however but I suppose good quality tools are made from heavy quality materials.  I purchased a leather and plastic sheath so I can wear it on my belt.

My order will arrive in a few days.  I will not be able to use it until my next camping trip.  I am not sure if I will be able to make good use of this multitool.  Did I buy it on impulse?  Maybe.  We'll see.
