Paul,if your thinking Juices,bear in mind they're the most over priced of all LMs :ahhh

I have the KF4,XE6 and a Metro SlimJim S2. I also had a stock S2,which I didn't rate. I like the two big ones I have an awful lot,but rrp on either is mad.

However Amazon has the XE6 for under £80 ATM here
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Leatherman-Juice-Multi-Tool-Thunder-Purple/dp/B000PILJNE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1387185160&sr=8-1&keywords=leatherman+juice

And a C2 here at £45ish

There is no beginning,or ending,and for this we are thankful,cos now is hard enough to understand!

The Juice S2 is probably the best choice because of its lightweight capabilities. And it's the cheapest.

I (mostly) love the S2. As a lefty, I have to have REALLY good scissors, and the S2's are not 'really good'. I'm sure most right-handed users would never notice a problem with them. IF you get an S2, take a file to the edge of the can opener/cap lifter, and bevel it. At least, if you ever intend to open a can with it.

Otherwise, I REALLY like the S2. Fairly slim, and very small. I don't have the 'bitten by flathead' problems that others do. The pliers are excellent, and while not locking, the drivers have good, strong retention.

I also have a KF4. If price isn't an issue, and you don't need scissors, I think you get much more of a 'tool kit' with the KF4. Diamond file, serrated blade along with a plain edge, and saw. The awl doesn't inspire confidence, but the rest of the tool is very nice.

I think the Juice line is a bit overpriced for what you get, in the United States. Elsewhere, it just becomes crazy.

No worries Paul.

I'd had a test drive of TaxiDads XE6 earlier this year and liked it,but their a mad price,more than a Wave! But they are good,if you get them at the right price :tu:

Did you order already? I might have a purple XE6 and a CS4 in blue for you.
And yes, I could do some comparison shots this weekend, i think.
But I can´t make any of the Juices show up on your side of the channel before Christmas.

Would either sell or trade, you know me ...

 :tu: Enjoy it. They are an interesting tool family, with their benefits and downfalls.
And don´t open it early - Santa will see it and bring you nothing next year!
