Is the Juice series about to be discontinued?

[stugumby]

Was watching the wealljuggleknives channel on youtube and he said the juice has been discontinued once the new free series knives hit the markets. Anyone in the loop or is this just a random thought based on retired models on Leathermans home page?

I'm guessing retired. Almost all the models were discontinued out, so I figure too they're axing the line. Only newer models like the B2 and CS3 remain.  I was really skeptical about them, until I got my C2 for 50% off on the LM site. For light EDC (not the industrial-duty stuff I do around the farm), it's perfect. I'd really like one of the bigger models now. But, I'd go with the older ones. One, the action on my Juice is really stiff on all the tools. I can feel it grinding even after cleaning and oiling.  And then there's the too short for the frame blade--I like the shape, but it just feels like a broke blade someone reprofiled.

Now while only C2 and XE6 in retired products section on LM site. But other Juices probably wait the same fate.
We've discussed this before:

Or they could go back to old design. Those were nice.

Also, once they're all retired, if you send one for warranty, what will they replace it with?

In theory the Juice series should have competed with SAKs but in real world application it just never did get it right like a SAK though Sad to see them go and I hope that they replace them with something similar

This while Vic users are asking for a smaller plier based tools similar in size the juice... Wish LM would reconsider and rethink the juice line from the ground up... with better price points...
