Overall review of the Leatherman Wave Black Oxide Finish Multi Tool
This is a really amazing tool which sadly comes with a bad finish. Bad finish is being mentioned here because some users seem to have a grey hand for days if they use the multi-tool on a day to day basis. However, there are some good tips thatย can battle this issue. This is what should be done on tools like this to get rid of the issue of the bad finish resulting in smudges.
Beforeย using the Leatherman Wave Black Oxide Finish Multi-Tool, use a cotton piece so as to remove the extra bit of paint on the body and thus, in turn remove the issue altogether.
However, apart from this issue the multi-tool is one of the best buys in todayโs market and is definitely worth a try.
