dip the matches entirely in hot liquid wax, yes the head too. They will become completely waterproof and will be ignitable. Try it with candle wax. I got 3 layers of wax still ignitable. Greetings from germany.

Coffee swizzle sticks (tiny straws) fit in the frame slots beneath the 4 outer blades. Lots of things can be stored inside with ends crimped and melted to make waterproof

Loved this video! So many good ideas, I hadn’t thought of using heat shrinking tape as a sheath but with a little bit of patience it can be so effective. Thanks for all your work!

Honestly the shrink wrap in the clip is great. I like it because it’s right there for access no need to open anything and flip through to find it. I may use this approach to see if I can shrink wrap the Klecker flashlight stowaway onto the clip 😮‍💨

It looks like you could use the shrink tubing to attach an additional driver bit or two to the pocket clip.

Use gorilla tape to adhere things to your clip. You can muti-use and reuse tape and gorilla tape can be an improvised butterfly stitch, be fuel for fire starting and even make things like arrow fletching. A strand of survivor chord instead of hemp line has many more uses too.

I keep two matches in my Leatherman Surge. To keep them dry and make them a nice fit in the tool handle, I put them in a length of heat shrink and shrink it. Easy enough to cut it open when you want to use the matches.

Make the beeswax into bars using a silicone soap mold and get it into a size you can hold it in your hand and use it for leather conditioning etc.

I like the match idea. I would use aluminum foil instead because then it gives you something else you could use. Like an igniter for a battery.

Been catching up on some of your videos. Adding items to the clip with shrink tubing is a really good one.

beeswax is great for muzzleloading lubricant mixed with tallow... I'm working on a 3D printed capper for my muzzleloader I can swap out for the ferro rod in my Rocktol 22 in 1 :D

In terms of shrink wrapping things to the clip I think a couple of the the Leatherman bits could go on there for easy access or when you don't have the bit sheath.

Another good way to store the needle and thread is a to use a piece of skinny coffee straw. I don't like to wrap the needle in thread, so I just wrap it around my fingers and use a shorter piece to pull it into the straw with the needle threaded and ready to sew.

Cowabunga dude.! The horizon has widen. As for the extra bees wax, I melt them down and use it as a sealant on my didgeridoo. It gives a good seal & great sounds coming out as you do the circular breathing. Again great segment mate. Greetings from Australia. Well done to the winner.!

I am going to try to put a Swiss army pin, pen, toothpick and tweezers on my pocket clip with the shrink tube idea, Pretty much combine my Compact with my Wave.

Careful, Leatherman is going to take your ideas and make millions :) Good stuff.

Hey max. Here's some mods I have done to my multitool. You might find some of these interesting. Also, I made a sheath for tweezers on the pocket clip as well so I could keep the keyring

First thing I did was put a pair of tweezers from a broken Gerber dime in the section under the saw. The tweezers are sprung open in their natural state which keeps them retained even when the saw is in use, and if I need to use the tweezers a quick smack to my palm and they come right out.

Exelentes ideas,amigo.Un saludo desde Argentina,por supuesto voy a emplear alguna para mi Leatherman Wave

New sub here! Awesome ideas, love the shrink tubing ideas. How about hiding some lock picks? Great channel!! Atb, Diane

I plan on buying the red Victorinox Swiss card lite. I thought of another way to use it unconventionally: Put a flashlight up to it so it shines red light, thus you don't lose night vision / is a stealthier way to have light at night on a 'tacticool mission'. 😉 I have a Skmei digital watch that I bought off of Amazon for like $15. It has a red light on it. I use it for this very reason: retaining night vision

The heat shrink tube idea rocks. There are giant tube like 2 inches diameter and yo could make a sheath for many tools and knives with it like a snap. If the strength is in concern you could add a couple more layers to it. Much faster than with epoxy soaked cloth or kydex or stuff.

Мало вариантов дополнительного инструмента, давай всё что можно поместить в мультитул. На АлиЭкспресс нашёл 7 инструментов которые вставляются в отверстие для кольца или клипсы. И несколько клипс- инструментов.

Cool video. The way that Ferro rod layed down into that gap on the clip got me thinking what if you JB welded or any epoxy that rod into that clip cut out. That way it's secure there and the clip becomes a handle to hold the rod better when actually trying to start a fire. You could still put the heat shrink over just as an added later of protection. That clip is going to catch and scratch on stuff getting out of cars etc. So the heat shrink would reduce any scratches on other surfaces.

I usually just carry a Vic Minichamp with my Charge, bit these were some good ideas

Next time stormproof matches are much better wind or water can’t put them out and diamond file should strike them.

What about lock picking tools. A rake a a tension bar?

Try putting a toothpick in with an item inside the while using the heat shrink wrap idea on the pocket clip so that it doesn't completely seal the item inside. So it can be used as a sheath.

A Pen from a Vitronox Swiss Army Knife (Champ) A very good waterproof pen. Can be brought as a spare part.

Awesome ideas! Gotta try this very soon.

Really excited about this one!

You can make fix n wax with beens wax and coconut oil you can even add some essential oils to it for smell , melt that into a tin with waxed paper , plug wounds lube knifes and joints Rub into libs or cracked hands food aafe too so good for a knife you plan to cut food with

Shrink tubing you say? I pride myself on the contents of my leatherman pouch.. I will definitely use the shrink tube method. Thanks!

You can cut a tinder quick in half longways and insert each half where the pliers fold down. Should get a good 2-3 fires out of it. Can't take credit as it wasn't my idea, saw it on another Wave vid.

Definitely some excellent ideas! Great video 👍

I put a needle and thread, and a Leatherman tweezer inside my surge

Been looking forward to this

Brilliant, keep it coming

A bobby pin !! It would be excellent as a emergency handcuff key in dire survival situation if one gets caught by bad guys. One must atleast try. It is also used to open locks if you know how to do it.

Maxlev . How’s it going bro ? I just got a frost gen wave . Someone passed and it was left behind . It s like brand new though . I figure you are the guy to come to info for a pocket clip .

My Asbergers brain finds these little tricks and tips incredibly soothing. The cleverness and James Bond stealth factor is awesome 👍 I think I'd use a very thin Ferro rod rather than dodgy matches. You can better protect the match head with a thin coat of nail varnish. The pocket clip heat shrink tricks are outstanding ! Added bonus is the tubing is also fire🔥 tinder. I wish the damn clips weren't $12.95 here, that's a rip off ! You didn't show the Swiss card tools tricks ! I've got a pen in my Wave mk1 under the inner tools and in the mk 2 it fits under the saw. The mk2 also has a plastic Toothpick under the file. A SIM tool/paper clip or safety pin in the serrated blade cavity. Filed down Tweezers are under the main blade. All held with 2x1mm magnets. I'm guessing the Swiss card hacks are going to be Ep 9 or 10 👍

Where did you get the toothpick holder? I cannot find one like that.

Good job!

Man awsome video

Great video, one thing is that the Milwaukee load out backpack in the background?I bought one recently, can u tell me how strong is it I haven't used it yet.

someone needs to make a pocket clip made of ferro rod

You are the best

Nice tips, thanks :-)

Any ideas for contrabande?

Blow darts in the sheath?

Great video Awesome ideas. Would this also work with my Ozark trail Multiforce?

That needle will definitely rust if not sealed. Happened to me.

I used a paper clip as a fuse once and it melted to my thumb

Hey i need some help to mod my wave+, i would like to have big scissors on the outside part and a good solid prying tool instead of the small scissors, it will be my first mod and I don't know what replacement parts to buy, can you help me pls?

Skrink wrap didnt even cross my mind, I was thinking in duct tape and super glue. Now I gotta go buy a bunch of shrink wrap…

@14:50 And now I've got a toothpick in my multi-tool THAT ACTUALLY WORKS AS A TOOTHPICK without needing to have a Michael Spinks-sized gap between my teeth! Suck on that, Victorinox!😜

Where did you get that toothpick case!!!!

Attach nail clippers!

Victorinox small toothpicks and tweezers.

" Get off me", Lol!

hm...blocking the clip hole with the fishing hook or paperclip just to have to use the pocket clip to get it out seems a bit odd. Why should i carry a clip on its own around ? just as a tool to get another tool out of my multitool ? makes no sense

Have you tried integrating a tortoise gear firefly ferro rod into a Leatherman?

Love the video and channel. Quick question, so do the mods that fit inside all use the pocket clip slot. The pocket clip can’t get put back in.

Do you reckon the charge series has te same ability to store things? especially thinking about the lanyard and tweezer spots

just get a sak classic for toothpick instead of all this extra work

Where did you find your nice toothpick box?
