Their quality is a shit. I bought a wave+ 2 years ago, broke within a couple months (spring in pliers broke making pliers unusable). Sent it back and they say it’s not repairable so they give me a different one (mine was laser engraved). Then the replacement breaks (spring that holds pocket clip in place). I don’t even use the Leatherman that much, and wasn’t doing anything that could be outside of light use.

Hmm. I’m assuming like every other sector there are lots of fakes of dubious quality that are virtually indistinguishable from real ones except they break much more easily.

Unless you’re buying from Leatherman directly you have a much greater chance of getting a fake that’s priced high but made cheaply with inferior materials to scam people. Just try and get a real SD card on Amazon. Probably 60% or more fakes for the big name ones and huge profits for the criminals.
