That's wicked!!

It's awesome seeing the facts too. I think if I had 1700$ worth of tools they would be in a Shadow box on the wall with a plaque.

How do you store these?

I got the final piece to complete my retired LM collection  :ahhh

I don't see Original Juice SX, but I see two Original Juice C2  ;)

Haha, yes the black Juice C2 is my pretend Juice SX. I know I am only fooling myself but I am ok with it  >:D

The original Juice SX were probably in production only for a few months until the new model was introduced. So I won't be surprised if less than 100 or so were made. Out of which about 90% got thrown away when they rusted on the beach. I don't think I will ever find one  :cry:

I was able to find one of those originals...but not without the help of an American friend, and a lot of praying.

By the way, thanks for the trip down memory lane. I had forgotten about this thread, and I found it a real treat to see the start of the Leatherman collection back in 2009.

A wooden box in the garage. Well, a nice box... more like a Jewellery Box for men. I spend a lot of time in the garage so I get a lot of fondling time without making the wife jealous  ::)

Yeah, I was shocked to see you had only 2 Micras  :think:

I have a plan to convert the Black Juice C2 to an original looking Juice SX someday. Need to get better at modding before I start on that project.

No worries mate  :cheers: Except for the pruner heads and anniversary models they were all bought used and half of them did not come with sheaths. Unused ones were dumped in a box. Took some pics just for you  :)

I got the Tool Chest from Costco for $40 when it was discounted not too long ago. It was called a Trinity Wood Toolbox. I figured I could store about 100 MTs in that box two rows deep and double that if I stack them.

Thanks man!! That's still quite the collection of sheaths!!

The open "pocket" design if the sheath next to the folding shears, the gray handled shears that don't fold, have always eluded me.

I thought I saw one on flea bay awhile ago but they were asking way too much.

And SteveC the 6th one to the right on the bottom row, did we trade that? It looks super familar.

My small but growing collection of LMs.  Apologies for the crappy camera.



The PST on the left, the OG Wave on the right, and the blue S4 get carried with some varying frequency.  The rest get....fondled from time to time.

Color matched as in the 2 handles match eachother? They are both black. (The picture makes them look camo, but they are not)

Everything has a plan, the OHT which was bought new is still for sale

The Surge which I recieved from Stew, traded to JBW1, and then traded back to me, will probably be a parts tool.

The super tool is pending trade if I can gmst.

The ALX is a project, needs scissors and an awl. Preferably in BO. But those parts are hard to find.

The Wave Will stay original as possible. I'll keep carrying it as a beater. If I know a Job is nasty the wave gets it.

The Came Fuse is staying in my collection as my safe queen. Too nice to ruin. (From Capt)

The Wingman, I know I got from someone but I have to look back to find out from who.
It's my dedicated fishing tool.

Then skeletool has 6 Damascus project bladed that are half done, but since I moved I don't have a shop.

And both Micra's are getting taken apart and getting keys in the handles for a new keychain.

I like where the collection is now, the only addition in want to make is a New Surge with Replaceable wire cutters. I just can't decide between SS and BO.
