"Good ring, bad clip" | 2008-09-08 |

| I've had my wave for about five years and had a classic Leatherman for about ten before that. I've always loved the leather holsters but recently the snap on the holster for my wave gave up the ghost. Fortunate for me, I thought, that I had bought the lanyard ring and pocket clip set! I like the lanyard ring quite a bit--the quick-release functionality works really well and is superior to the well hidden lanyard ring already on the Wave. After the holster died, I decided to switch to the pocket clip--it's a pocket knife after all. Not three days after switching to the pocket clip (which takes the space of the lanyard ring so they can't be used simultaneously) I sat down, heard a "Sproing!" noise and felt the sharp points of my now broken pocket clip digging into my hip. I'll be sure to make use of the fairly generous 25 year warranty on Leatherman products but I don't think I'd recommend anyone buy this unless they just want the quick-release ring. |

| I just got my new Leatherman Wave & couldn't wait to get this pocket clip because carrying it in the belt sheath just isn't me. I can't comment on the lanyard ring because I don't plan on using it, just going in the drawer for now. This pocket clip allows me to carry my Wave with a "lower profile" & that's what I wanted. It doesn't pull your pocket down or anything, keeps it right where you need it & looks really good when attached. One concern I had about it was that it would get in the way when using the tool, luckily it's not an issue with this clip. If you're like me & don't want to carry your Leatherman in the belt sheath, get this clip, you won't be disappointed. |

The pocket clip is nice and will holds the Leatherman firmly in your pocket. But if you are planning to use the Lanyard Ring, think again. It is very large and clumsy. I tried to use it on my Wave with the leather sheath. Since the ring is very big, the sheath can hardly close and it bends the ring. Bottom line, i wouldn't recommend it if you are planning to use the ring. |

Perfect - Perfect - Perfect Snaps on just like it should and makes it handy to clip to pocket in-between working with leatherman. A well thought out product. |

| This diddy slips in quickly and nicely on my wave and surge. A great option when needing to be stealthy. It's been durable and keeps the MT from moving around in my pocket. Wish more stores had this and the bit set although Amazon service was excellent. |

The Leatherman pocket clip is a great addition to the Wave multi-tool. It eliminates the need for the bulky leather pouch and adds to the versatility of the tool. Well worth the money.
Thanks,

| Okay, first of all let me clear up one point that I was a bit confused about with this product. You can use either the clip OR the ring at one time. Not both. With that said, the belt clip is solid and fits snug on the tool. It does not have the play or wobble of clip that I got for my Kick. Also, as previously mentioned, the clip/ring come off with a press on the unlocking lever. This is a nice feature if you get into a situation where the clip starts hurting your hand when using the pliers. Overall, a great addition. |

| These 2 attachments would better be termed "disposable quick releases" instead of a lanyard ring or clip. You will choose one or the other (not both at the same time) and 'install' it by pushing the outer quick-release lever and pressing the unit into the open slot you'll see on your Leatherman at the end where the quick-release sits. You will -not- be loosening the fastener at the other end and attaching it permanently... this thing is -meant- to pop off in a heartbeat and that's exactly what it will do if you ever trust it, as soon as something presses against the release lever! Vague excuses about it being meant to help the tool ride inside your pocket aside, I have to admit I just don't get it. A lanyard attachment point that can't be trusted is NOT a lanyard, but an invitation to loss. Anyway, the fit and finish of the two is up to the usual Leatherman standards, it doesn't cost much... but You Have Been Warned. The only rational use I can think of for this is if you chain the lanyard ring to your belt, then detach the Leatherman from it when you want to use it. It would be a quick and easy motion and the lanyard chain would supply some extra insurance... too bad once you install it you won't be able to fit it back in the sheath! So let's use the clip... oh wait, you can't use both at once! No, this package is NOT well thought out. I'm sure some will find it useful but for most folks, it's just a good way to lose your tool. |

This is a very good accessory for the new Wave multitool. I have not used the lanyard ring (I will just use the built in ring) but I like the pocket clip very much.
It is very easy to attach, and I have had no issues or concerns with the clip detaching unexpectedly.
I can keep the clip attached to the tool when I am using the leather sheath, but the clip is very handy when I do not want to carry the sheath.
This is a big improvement over having the tool floating around in my pocket. |
