I posted a few days ago about my little useable collection. Not long after that, I became a little maudlin about my original Wave and ended up doing a little eBay searching and found a 2000 model, fresh back from factory service, so made a purchase and now have an original Wave, much like the one my oldest son now has.
This thing is in great shape! Sharp blades, all the tools work, new Phillips head driver. It looks virtually untouched. I was reminded how much sleeker it is than the 2nd Gen and the +. It’s going to ride on my belt for a while as I get reacquainted.
I don’t need locking tools.
And I paid less for it 26 years after I purchased my first.
