I've taken the ALX out of the running and narrowed it down mostly just the Surge and the Charge TTi, with a "Super Tool 300" as a distant 3rd tried and true backup possibility... Kinda looked at the Victorinox SwissTool as well... seems well made, but I guess I'm just a Leatherman guy

I dont think they would swap scissors and things but they might swap a crappy blade for a better one if you threw them a few bucks.

I'll swap it myself if the geometry will fit and they'll sell me the replacement part - or heck, sell me the part for a few bucks and I'll worry about the fitting myself!!
But along the same lines, if the geometry fits, that means upgrading the blade on the Surge to a the S30V also might fit as well

Not so much a Wave fan for this particular "must do everything and then a bit more" usage - other models all have additional features that I would like to have some if not all of - Awl, better knife steel, replaceable wire cutter blades (supertool)
