Cabelas Charge TTi Camo Pictures:

Overall nice tool.
I have to say though, the cost is almost not worth it. That tool costed around $140 from Cabela's.
But, you gotta pay to play.
I have the normal Charge TTi and the only bad thing that I can say about the Camo TTi is that its really stiff. I think with use that the tool will loosen up no problem.
I definitely recommend getting a Charge TTi. The cost may be a bit steeper than the Wave or a Charge AL, but the quality is really noticeably better.
Let me know how you guys like this one.

Except for collectors, I don't see where a camo Charge Tti makes any sense. A multitool usually gets carried in pocket or pouch, where it is concealed, and when it's out, the person holding it would probably attract more attention than the piece itself. Meanwhile, drop it in the brush and then try to find it. And for all that utility, only $40 more than a plain Tti could be had? Cheap at half the price

It's nice and unique, definitely a collector.
The black coating prevents the glint of the metal scaring the animal (or alerting people) away, yet it offers no additional value because all the tools on the regular charge/wave have either brushed or bead blasted finish that doesn't glint.
The camo makes the tool near impossible to find when you drop it on the forest floor. I guess it serves some military purpose (less trace), but I don't see how it can benefit a civilian hunter.
I can totally see the aesthetic value though. Just like women who like matching shoes-belt-handbag-purse-watch, men like matching camo pattern on their clothing-gears-guns-knives.

Did you pick up a pair of truck nuts also? Just kidding, but that isn't my taste.
Just kidding, but that isn't my taste.Everyone already said it... drop that thing twice and bye bye! I'm assuming you'll find it the first time.
I think all woods knives should have blaze orange or yellow scales or handles. In a pocket or pouch it won't show, but when it hits the forest floor you'll be glad it does.
Slightly OT, but relevant to dropping things in the woods: I gave my daughter a minimag for hiking, upgraded with the Nite-ize tailcap & 1W LED. She dropped it. On the way back a friend of hers noticed a red LED blinking under a fallen tree. Sure enough, it was her light, she hadn't even realized she'd lost it climbing over that tree.
