Perfect Juice, I say perfect Multi-tool.  Ok Ill qualify my statement with the fact that I have never carried one, but I wish I would have pursued the K4 instead of getting the Wave.  I love the Wave but the K4 has all I need in a smaller package.  I don't like serrated blades but it may make a good rough use knife while saving the non-serrated one for fine/light work.

I have a NIB KF4 for sale in the trade forums.   :pok:  :D

We also have a few of these left in stock, but i wouldn't recommend the Juice model in general.
Their biggest weakness is the backsprings, very many come to my desk with a few or all of them broken.
Cannot repair them so they all get replaced,

The problem is for UK folk is if we want to EDC our multis, our choices are usually fairly limited  :-\

Is this a problem inherent to the Juice models?  My XE6 had that happen to it.  The spring to one of the tools just... fell off.  It just literally fell off for no particular reason.  I am thinking about getting it fixed, but am not sure if it is worth it, if it is going to happen again, you know?

I have noticed that the springs on my Juice are very very weak.  I dont think that it is a bad tool by any means but such a thing disturbs me to no end.

Yeah the older ones where almost indestructible :D

I have tinkered with the idea of getting a Juice myself but I like heavier duty tools

Even my  :ahhh :ahhh :ahhh !!!MINI!!! :ahhh :ahhh :ahhh seems more heavy built than a Juice though :-\

The Juice is a good idea for a lighter day though  :cheers:

The Juice is my off-day tool.

CORE on work days.
Juice S2 weekends/off days.

I also own a KF4. I love it, but with it being *discontinued*, its not in my EDC lineup.

The S2 has really grown on me. I was underwhelmed when I first got it, but I've become more fond of it the more I carry it.

I'm thinking about getting a C2. Am I correct that the Vic mini driver fits in the corkscrew?
Fan of the Leatherman mini-bit driver and the Vic backspring philips.

Indeed it does  :)  Slightly loose, but it does fit.
