what is your favorite juice. mine is the xe6. the pro has more but i like the thunder purple and i have used it for years. I stopped carrying it every day because the pliers would bend on the big stuff but it never broke.
does any one have any other uses for the corkscrew on the juice models? I keep a vic eyeglass screwdriver in there! makes it useful.

I don't like the corkscrew. Its too big and in-the-way for how little it gets used. I wish there was an option like many Swiss Army Knife models, where you can substitute a phillips screwdriver for the corkscrew. (Yah, I know the Juice already has a phillips, but think how much better a long length one would be)

My favorite  juices are the KF4 and the S2.

I like the Xe6.  Does everything, and I like purple :multi:

I have an S2 and think it's great for EDC.

But, I have an SC2 on its way, and I'm really looking forward to EDC'ing it.  On paper, the SC2 seems pretty good.

The Juice Pro is my favorite of the Juice line.  As for the corkscrew, I've used it to pick at knots, hold the Victorinox mini screwdriver, and one of my brother-in-laws borrowed it to open a bottle of wine.

Mine would be watermelon, with half a cup of ice. Really cools the body in the tropics. :P

I only have one Juice - the CS4.  It doesn't get used much.  I think my wife uses it more than me.

I really liked the CS4 and the Kf4.  I traded away my CS4 and don't really know why.  I suppose I'll have to get another one eventually...

I like the Kf4 the best. The tool selection is perfect!

I've never been a fan of the Juice series.  What about it appeals to you all? 

Maybe I'd get one if it came with one of Stormdrane's lanyards!  :D

Stormdrane, nice picture there. is that a gaming mousepad the juice is on?

It's a mousepad with a lamp, but since I've been using a Logitech Marble Mouse for years, I don't actually use the mousepad part, but the lamp on it is serves it's purpose daily.  :)

The Juice Pro is a chunky tool compared to most of the other Juice models, but the appeal for me is the utility I get from a smaller sized multitool that almost disappears in the front pocket, compared to others I have like the Wave or Spirit.

Start playing around with a few knots and before you know it, you'll be putting lanyards on everything.  I still gotta figure out if I can safely drill a hole in a TV remote for one.   :D

the juice line fits in places others won't. my ranger rd7 has a survival sheath with scalpel, bandades, fish line, hooks ...,flashlight, fire steel, lighter, and a kf4. the spirit is just slightly to big for the velcrow to close well.

     Okay the real reason the kf4 was discontinued:  It was the only model that had even thickness scales and made the other models look bad because anyone that owned a kf4 first would look at the others and say "why are the scales uneven?"  It is obvious but sales may have played a part but I must confess it is my favorite also.

 I've always wondered why they found it so hard to think of models with even thicknesses. It's a nitpicky little annoyance, but don't like the uneven scales on the other models. ::)

I own a charge Ti and a surge, I needed something smaller,elegant for outside of work. So looked into juice ordered the CS4 from marc at edcdepot :salute: and sent it to my friend in CA (shipping to asia very expensive) too bad have to wait till augs to get it. Anyways way CS4 instead of Xe6, well it seem to me based on the forums Xe6 is very beefy. Anyone else share the same sentiments, and by the way is the CS4 any good whats its pros and cons?

Scrappy, I like Tang better than 8'o clock.Kiddin.., I have no Juice. I don't know, it has no appeal on me. For me, it looks more on the feminine side, rather, less masculine compared to other LM's.

The CS4 has a good selection of blades, although as stated earlier I'm no fan of the corkscrew. You will want to sharpen the tip of the awl blade on a grinder as soon as you get it - Leatherman leaves the awl tip rounded for some reason.
