Got a really old Charge XTi in Camo. It has pentalobe screws, "PAT PEND" stamp  :ahhh, and of course, the lovely camo sheath. I love how  crisp the "Leatherman" letterings are. This bring the Camo stainless version to 4 pieces in my collection.

CAN YOU SEE MY CHARGES?  :D

I have lost (stolen from me) two MTs, Charge previous version (which was my first MT so I had a special feeling for it) and Juice CS4., the Charge was lost three years ago and the Juice just a couple of months ago.
Today I got replacements for both of them... Used, acceptable price (cheap comparing against normal prices in my country), and in good shape.
Same version of the Charge  and different but lovable version of the Juice (XE 6).

Therefore, now I can join the Charge owners club if you guys allow me in.




Now, I want to make clear that this is not just a collecting impulse. I really use  Multitools quite a bit, everyday.

Is that case genuine? It looks awesome.

No, the case is not LM product, it's just something I put together with a case founded at a garage sale, everything fits perfect though ;)

The original CS4 is a real favorite and my most used Juice.  My (redesigned) XE6 works great but doesn't hold a candle to your original purple XE6 in the looks department. I consider the Charge to be the most desirable LM ever made.  The four key implements (regular blade, serrated blade, saw & file) are easily accessible from the closed position and the pliers and interior tools are wonderful useful!

Here is my current Charge status.  :P The latest one is the pimped out, gold-plated with damascus blade TTi by TTC (shogun ed.). I added a gold-plated clip to it. This is the second tool in my collection with damascus blade by TTC. I like the shape of LM blades better, which look more tacticool. Close up on the damascus pattern.

I did not buy the shogun TTi from TTC. It is not the costliest one in the group. The one set me back the most is the Camo TTi with stainless blades (second one from the top, second row). The oldest one by age is the bottom TTi on the right column.

Holy Smokes!!!

And here I thought I had a lot of LMs...never seen that many Charges in one place!

Depends on how hard the steel is that the bolt is made from.  I would use a hacksaw, it would be much easier and quicker.

You're right. Not worth the risk so I bought a hacksaw to do the job :)

Definitely a good decision to buy the hacksaw :tu: I use my MT a lot but dedicated tools are better for most tasks :tu:

Picked up a 2009 Charge this week, no sure I understand the models, could it be a TTI?
