KF4

Juice KF4 Despite being one of the five original Juice Series models introduced in 2001, the KF4 was the only one to be rudely dismissed five years later. No one outside of the Leatherman Tool Group quite knows the reason why. It was a popular choice among multitool enthusiasts, with a blade selection that fell nicely in between the minimalist C2 and S2, and the thicker CS4 and XE6.
