Just the Gerber doesn't have a built-in saw. Can you imagine that? What were they thinking when they put this Gerber together? Idea

Lawenforcement.

They DID specify to a more lawenforcement side of knife and tool owners, but that changed as the went down hill companywise.

Though their multitools are still nice tools and yes a saw is nice to have, use a Blast daily, and sometimes wear my wave, but as of rite now thats still in Nova Scotia.


I'll say that I have 3 *real* saws for the bush: 2 folding, and 1 with a sheath. I don't know what it is with *threes* because I seem to have 3 of everything Razz

But that said, I don't have those folders and sheathed saws on my person for EDC, so that's the difference. Never know when that saw in the Wave will come in handy for something or other, although my bigger saws make the Wave saw look like small change when it comes to cutting wood Very Happy

For example, if you want to take down a sappling, they bend like rubber bands. If you really need to have one for some reason, any saw works much better than a knife in my personal experience, even the Wave saw. So I can't say the Gerber model I have without the saw feature is my favorite multitool for that simple reason.

IIRC...Les Stroud himself uses/carries a Wave? I found that out AFTER I already bought mine Razz
