All my KF4s (only 3 ) have a "2 thick" side and a "3 thin" side... I wonder if yours is a mistake unique collectable, or maybe they made KF4s (or all Juices) that way at some point. I'm Jsews will figure this out for us.
That's pretty cool. Pictures please
So Mr W, if you unfold the center flathead screwdriver on your Kf4, do the other two flop out aways?

Great. Now I gotta retire it and find another KF4 user...

Mine is an older yellow one with "Leatherman USA" on the plier head. I also have a storm grey one with "Leatherman Tool" on the head that has the three thinner backsprings behind the flatheads.
It's as good a theory as I can come up with!We need a few more people to contribute to this thread and see how unusual they actually are, although there's a distinct chance that we could be opening another, PST-like can of worms.Great
Hmmm - not sure it's an age thing. I have a 0601 KF4 (USA) that has three springs on on side. 0601 is pretty much as old as the KF4 gets. I also have a 0901 with the USA ground out and an 0402 (TOOL).They are all the same

Hey! I was just thinking about this thread the other day! (but couldn't find it) I've got some juicy info and more pictures to post But I have to leave right now for a party. But I'll be back in a bit......
without the thin back springs, are there any problems?
