As you said: quality is close enough. Difference is visible a specialy in file and knife sharpening quality, mainly because steel used for file and knife in favore of Latherman. Bad quality wire cutters becomes legendary in Lathermann"s case.

Where they lower cost is no epa no osha or regulations and possibly either child or slave labor in china.. thats part of the cost savings.. don't get me wrong i buy stuff at harbor freight.. i bought a 225 piece tool set..i believe made in taiwan i figured most everyday mechanic tool set are made offshore..

You really did a very good review. While i agree with many of your points. I personally really like my Bibury it was $29. I only wish i bought the one when it was $35 that has the replacement saw and diamond file. I really like the full sized bits. My problem with leatherman was their bits were to soft for my line of work. I used leatherman for years i stopped because their price didn't match their quality or usefulness. I also believe Bibury uses 7cr17 which is a upgrade over 420hc.

Whilst it seems a great clone, I personally feel they have shot themselves in the foot opting to go with the flat driver bits. For me, that is a total deal breaker, particularly when you look at all of the other wave clones using standard bits. The Bibury, Roxon and Flissa options seem much better in my opinion. Great review tho!

I went to the local hardware store to buy the XS but holding the 100 mm and 125 mm versions side by side instantly turned me toward the larger model. People have varying needs for edc tool sizes. The 125 mm / 5” model has been small enough for me to carry every day and barely notice it.
