I guess I don't mind the clumping of tools.
Also, on top of the already listed tools, how about the Flair, Pulse, Crunch, Core, Rev, MUT, Signal, and FreeStyle?Don't see much of those EDC'd. Gonna have to watch this one. Great thread idea, Gareth!
Here's another of my less than commonly carried LMs; a Kick. Much like Poncho's Core, the once common Kick, Fuse and Blast seem to have been forgotten about now that the Rebar has replaced them. I've actually cheated with this one and added a saw and scissors to make it more useful. (Image removed from quote.)

I suspect there is a feeling the Pulse is still a massively popular tool based on just you two posting about it. You know I'll never disagree though.

Good choice.

(Image removed from quote.)Gareth, can I ask what parts you used for this, I'm assuming scissors and saw from the blast? Was it a straight fit and what tools did you replace to get them to fit? I love the kick and with scissors it would be close to perfect for me.
Count me in with the Juice KF4 and the Sideclip The KF4 gets carried exclusively with a Climber small, which complements the Juice very well indeed, adding better scissors and openers than the Juice line can offer. After trying the CS4 and XE6 twice, and being disappointed both times, I've settled on the KF4 as being the best of the Juice line. Sadly, while the CS4 is perfect in theory, it fails too many ways in practice.The Sideclip is an excellent companion for any other 84mm to 91mm Swiss knife. This was a tool I foolishly traded away the first one I got, but saw the error of my ways in time - and got two more. As a standalone tool it is quite limited, but there are very few minimalist pliers tools which compliment a Victorinox or Wenger pocket knife as well as this. It was the Sideclip which convinced me to let go of my Mini Tool. For very little extra weight, it added a lot more capability, carried better, and was still compatible with the Tool Adapter (I'll not submit that in the mix, as it only gets used at home, not carried)Both Sideclip and KF4 handle small flat screws like electrical connections, which defeat the majority of Swiss knives, and carry very capable Phillips drivers, allowing for slimmer pocket knife choices.

There's a lot of unused space in a Kick. The only genuine bit of modification is having to file down the highlighted area (or else the saw won't close properly).

I have an old rusty broken blast somewhere (that was lost in the garden for 3 years and was dug up a few months ago hahaha). I'll definitely be doing this! Thanks for the idea and hope you don't mind.
I totally agree about the Sideclip being a fantastic companion to a SAK or somesuch. Quite honestly though I never thought you'd be the one to be carrying a Juice on a regular basis.
