Trolling Craigslist again and found an amazing buy that I couldn't pass up, even though my Juice Collection already has 3 pro's. This one is out of a time warp, Not a scratch in the anodized color, none of the blades seem used with the exception of the Plain edge which is slightly dull but doesn't look rounded. The tweezer doesn't appear to have ever tweezed. The case looks like it just came out of a box. The felt is even cushy still. The pocket clip has no wear... And I got it for a steal, $80 plus shipping since Florida is 1400 miles away.

I expect a few drooly icons over this one

if anyone is looking for a less cosmetically perfect Juice pro I'll sell you one for what it cost me plus shipping, obviously.

Hi Adam, will SAK corkscrew tools fit in the Juice’s corkscrew slot? Like the fine screwdrivers and FireAnt firestarter kit?
not adam, but I 3d printed one of the pieces that you could put the leatherman eyeglass driver in and it threads in perfectly. Someone asked me to create one that would do that for 4mm bits and there isn't enough room for them, so i don't know about the firestarter kit

 Never hurts to have a back up for the back up. In fact if this forum had a motto it would be “there is never enough”. Keep grabbing pros any chance you get.  :tu:

Another Craigslist steal! $45 +shipping

Kf4 in perfect condition, factory edges still razor sharp. No scratches or dents in the scales. Could be mistaken for fresh out of the  package

So now I have a less cosmetically perfect kf4 and juice pros to sell.

Is there a marketplace somewhere on mto?

I really like a scissors, but I will say it is the best size of the juices, much nicer on the pocket than the xe6 or pro.

Craigslist is really killing me with the prices $15 for a juice cs4, same for a pst2 + bit extender, $45 for the kf4, and $80 for an immaculate pro with a case. Impossible to resist.

That is a super cool catch !!


Looks like it is from the era LM milled the "USA" stamp on the pliers head mold?
Meet me also on youtube & instagram for mostly knives (and multitools) content

Same with the Pro, The KF4 was made from 2001 -06  https://wiki.multitool.org/tiki-index.php?page=Juice+Series
so the original ones would have had USA and the later ones might have had Tool in that spot. but there was an in between time where they cnc milled out the USA

actually i am wrong, the Pros have TOOL in that spot. So i have one cs4 and one xe6 with USA 2 kf4's with the milled and 1 xe6 with nothing (gen 2) and 4 pro's with TOOL

I wonder how that happened. The Pro was from 2002 long after the Made in USA lawsuit. the KF4's I have from 2001 are the milled ones so... ??? ???
I just checked all 4 Pro's I have and they were all made 04/02. I wonder if it varies by market. Where they changed to "Tool" or grinding for different markets?

edit
so strange, So I looked at the CS4 with USA and one of the KF4 with milled. The cs4 is from 01/02 and the kf4 is from 09/01 So seemingly no rhyme or reason.

I really wonder if it was market based. For instance Cali bound tools (where the lawsuit was) got the milled or TOOL, same for costco since they wouldn't know where an individual tool was going, and USA for other markets.
Since at the time, Leatherman was convinced that they would win.

I am also now curious about the Free P4/P2, As I was looking for USA on my other Leatherman tools only the Free P2 has USA on the pliers and on the Combo blade (i don't have the p4 or any k). Even my newest purchase, A Charge plus, does not have any USA markings on it and, that I can find, no indication of country of origin, only mentioning Oregon. And has anyone else noticed, no neat little manual telling you what each tool was, like the old days? Just a 1 page piece of  cardboard with how to open and how the locks work.

So I assume the Free series are solely American parts?

When the Free series came out , LM did make a deal out of being able to put USA back on the Free series and they are mostly if not all made in house :salute: I also commented on adding this to the wiki in the your Wiki Thread :cheers:

Well, I won't mislead you further :)
It's just another item from my collection of "Freak" Juices (tools with some factory errors).
Date codes: 0402 0202 and the reverse side of his pliers is quite normal  ;)

They are "potentially" problematic insofar as you need to have "lawful authority" or "reasonable excuse" to be carrying one (of ANY size)

I use the former for my work official issue carry and the latter for my SAR stuff (voluntary)

Wandering the streets without either is going to get you locked up, if stopped, followed by an interview sans biscuits  :pok:

I also just have an honest face  :whistle:  ;)

If you want to know more the HH website has a good grasp of it without too much legal mumbo-jumbo  :tu:

i think there are a few states here in the US that are like that also.
In my state I am fairly sure there is no type of knife you cannot carry except in some government buildings.courts and schools.
