Haven't tried it with that sheath but I've been carrying this for a month and am happy with it. Fits pretty well clipped in my change pocket and should work well with that clip,

One of the owners of the place I manage picked one up after trying mine. Has two brightness settings, 5 or 180 Lumens.
Leatherman makes a 'bit kit' that comes with 20 different double sided bits, but I've read that they aren't exactly the best quality metal. I believe other brands make bits out of a stronger material that will still fit a Leatherman, so I'm still doing my research on who makes a better set.
https://www.amazon.com/Leatherman-934870-Bit-Kit/dp/B0002H49D0 There's the link to the Leatherman brand one. If that's the sort of thing you're looking for.
I'd imagine you can get just the flathead/Phillips bit separately as well.
*Edit: comes with 21 bits
I used to have a Crater c33T. I wasn't too impressed by the construction of it, but that was 10 years ago, and they may have improved.
If I was looking for a knife-based multitool, I'd either go with the Victorinox One-Hand Trekker or wait for the Leatherman FREE K series.

(If you go with the Victorinox, this works great as a pocket clip: https://www.amazon.com/Nite-Ize-HipClip-Attachable-Smartphones/dp/B007CBSBM4
Woah, time out bro, I got you covered! I just checked Amazon and look what I found for $78.09 and free shipping!
I've purchased gift cards for my Canadian pen pal on Amazon.ca before, so I know you can purchase things off a foreign Amazon with your local card. The question is, will Amazon.com ship to Canada?
Try punching your address in and see if it will let you. If not, I can order it and mail it to you!
I've been using the OHT at work for a few months now. Best tip I can think of is ditching the provided MOLLE Velcro pouch and getting one that'll ride better on the belt. I've been using this one:

Carry a folding knife with it and you have the best of all worlds. As someone else mentioned, just remove the adjustment screw to reveal a 1/4" bit driver. It is deep however, so a short bit extender makes it a lot easier to use.

I went with the Rebar after discovering all of the hotspots when I was really working with the wave+. I don't mind the slow deploy. I guess all of this is going to change when the Free comes out.
​
Btw, I really like this sheath with a belt carry.

​
I also made a clip out of paracord and it actually holds in my pocket.

Something like Brasso might work?
What date is on the inside of the handles? It's usually something like 0895 for August 1995, or 0900 for September 2000 etc.
Thanks for the tip!
The Leatherman dealer over here recommended this. Arrives tomorrow, will report back!
Bought one. Nite-Ize stick on. Been holding up great

Along with getting the bit kit like the other user said, some oil may help. Put oil on it, then work it open and closed a bunch of times. It’ll help loosen grime, push it out, and of course lube it.

You wanna get the one with the pockets to carry the accessories. It comes in Medium (for the Wave, Charge, Rebar, Crunch, Wingman/Sidekick/Rev, and Skeletool) and Large (for the Surge, ST300, Signal, and I think the MUT fits too.)
Here it is directly from Leatherman.
From Amazon, the medium
And the large
Here’s the bitkit in the inside pocket of my Medium sheath
The extender goes in the smaller of the loops on the outside. I don’t have the extender with me right now but here’s the pocket clip as an analog.
My only problem with the Crunch (apart from the fact that you have to open it up to get at the knife, but that's a problem I have with a lot of tools) is its price. $110 is a ton of money when you can get plain vise-grips for under $10, and one of Irwin's own vise-grip MTs (e.g. this one) for a fraction of the price, and have an outside-opening combo blade as a bonus. The Crunch is less clunky, but if you're going to be wearing it on your belt anyway that barely matters.
Maybe a Leatherman Style?
Could try one of these https://www.amazon.com/dp/B007CBSBM4/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_57-VBbG372MY3
