The wave's only weakness is that it must be deployed out of a pocket. I've seen people come up with creative ways to wave; the most curious method involves using the fly of your jeans to catch the wave hook. I'm not sure I'd ever want the very pointy tip of my Mini 7B coming anywhere near my bedroom equipment, though. You cannot wave IWB, you cannot wave off a belt, and you probably will not be able to wave out of a pouch unless you use one of EKI's wave-feature holsters.
Hated mine. It kept getting caught on tne rim of my pocket and then it would open inadvertently. I removed the wave feature on my Mini CQC8 and now it is perfect.:thumbup:

Here's an example of rear and forward wave draws.
More waved nastiness!

Thanks for the feedback! Glad you can see past any political statements I have been accused of making in my vids.
I EDC the 15 in a gunmate belt pouch positioned horizontally on my left side for cross draw deployment.
If I could only carry one knife, it would be an EKI Combat Karambit. I wondered why people paid so much for Emersons until I got mine. It is by far my favorite of the 200+ knives I own.
