Look what I found today
on: April 09, 2016, 07:15:44 PM
Mooching about in a local gunshop and I saw this! I had to buy it!
I didn't realise these had a diamond file, it's a super bit of kit.
The problem is that the shop has another one too.....

He'd got it on at £67.50 but I was buying more stuff, so paid about £60.
That's a lot if your looking from the USA, but a 2016 Juice S2 is £57 over here. I have one of those too and the build quality is noticeably lower.

I love the KF4 good find :cheers: I do pocket carry it every once in a while as a weekend EDC :tu: I wish they could have somehow squeezed scissors in it and it would be as close to perfect a MT as I would have ever seen :gimme: Even without the scissors it is a great MT :think: As I have said before ::) LM should put there diamond file on every MT they have that has a file  :shrug: Plus the Juice line seems to be on par with Vic in the QC dept as well :o :D

Really? Even at £67.50? That's about $100.
They are both new old stock, never used.
Maybe if I bought it an held onto it for a few years?

Hmmm… NIB is worth a premium to collectors, but I'm sure you have a better feel for the UK market. Perhaps check eBay or this forum's buy & sell posts to get an idea.

That *is* one of the most sought-after non-special-edition Juices, there *is* a demand.

Ebay  :facepalm:
A few years ago they stopped allowing sales of knives. No reason, political correctness and lobbying from Mumsnet and other do-gooders.
So, this forum is one of the few places that MT users in the UK can buy and sell MTs and other knives. As a result there really isn't a "secondhand market" for MTs in the UK.

So these are about the right money then, it shows how sought after they are in the USA because USA manufactured stuff is often double the price to buy over here!
I'll think about it, I may go back and get the other one - if I do I may then offer it on this forum at cost + shipping.

Indeed, we have fallen a long way from the days of "Great Britain", I think "Crap Britain" is a more fitting epithet these days. However, there is light at the end of the tunnel, most of the sh*te that has happened to us in recent years has spewed forth from the EU and you may have heard we've got a bit of a vote coming up this summer...

Thinking about it, I'd be prepared to swap this for something else of equal value.
Maybe 2X Juice S2?
Some PSTIIs - 2 or 3?
