Leatherman Collector Social Series: Limited Edition Damascus Wave® Tool

Welcome to the Leatherman Collector Social Series, our new weekly feature where we delve into the rich history and craftsmanship of our most iconic and rare tools. Every Sunday, we’ll showcase a different limited edition or collector’s item, highlighting the unique stories and innovations behind each piece. (Please note, these collector items are not for sale, but are showcased to celebrate their historical significance and Leatherman's commitment to excellence).

In this inaugural spotlight, we’re excited to present the Limited Edition Damascus Wave® multi-tool —a true testament to our dedication to quality and design.

A Legacy of Innovation

The Wave® has long been a cornerstone of our multi-tool lineup. Since its debut in 1998, the Wave® model has set the standard with its innovative design, including outside-accessible blades for quick deployment. In 2004, we introduced a revised version, enhancing its functionality with locks on all inside tools and incorporating bit driver technology. This upgrade allowed users to easily switch out screwdriver bits, further cementing the status of the Wave® as a top-selling multi-tool.

A Special Edition Worth Celebrating

Our Limited Edition Damascus Wave® stands out not only for its historical significance but also for its exceptional craftsmanship. Each blade in this edition is crafted from more than 150 layers of uniquely-forged steel, creating a distinctive Damascus blend that ensures no two blades are identical—even within the same tool. This level of detail and individuality demonstrates our dedication to stylistic distinction.

The handles of this limited edition tool are treated with DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) for enhanced scratch and corrosion resistance, while also featuring a special Limited Edition logo. With only 1000 of these tools ever made, each one is numbered in sequence, making this a truly unique collector’s item.

 

Celebrating 25 Years of Excellence

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to our customers who have supported Leatherman over the past quarter-century. The Limited Edition Damascus Wave® is not just a functional model but a piece of our history—crafted to honour our ongoing commitment to quality and design. The innovation and development that began with the original Wave® has continued to evolve, leading to the creation of the Wave®+. This modern iteration incorporates all the trusted features of its predecessors, along with upgraded, replaceable wire cutters and refined ergonomics. The Wave®+ stands as a testament to our relentless pursuit of perfection, ensuring that Leatherman tools remain at the forefront of multi-tool technology.

Thank you for being part of the Leatherman journey. Here’s to many more years of cutting-edge tools and continued excellence!
