Leatherman 74208003 Juice CS4, Storm Gray

Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Packing 14 individual tools into a remarkably compact, Storm Gray, anodized-aluminum body, Leatherman's cool new CS4 is a midsize member of the company's exciting, new Juice line of multitools. Only 3-1/4 inches long, and weighing a mere 5-1/2 ounces, the CS4 really is small enough to carry comfortably in your pocket. Like other Leatherman tools, the CS4 butterflies open, exposing the needle-nose pliers/wire cutters/wire stripper, with access to three flat-head screwdrivers, a Phillips driver, and a lanyard attachment--the same tools you'll find inside Leatherman's KF4 Solar. The CS4's handles, however, harbor a different combination of tools that are perfect for picnickers: scissors, a can/bottle opener, corkscrew, a saw, an awl, and a straight knife. Like the entire Leatherman's Juice line, the CS4 positively snaps into the open position, and the individual tools are all made of high-grade stainless steel. The Juice multitools do lack the blade-locking mechanism found on Leatherman's Wave, but the blades click crisply into place and hold securely. Looking for a gift for your favorite technophile or gadget lover? You can't go wrong with the CS4. Made in the USA. --Jon Groebner

5.0 out of 5 stars Great product for an all around tool..., August 15, 2003

I have another leatherman and I take it with me everywhere in my truck. It has saved me many times before and I know it will continue to save me in the future. I just bought 5 of these since I am getting married in October for my groomsman. I know they will love it because it will be a good tool for them in the years to come and they will always think of the wedding when they need to use it.

The tools are well set, and the feel is very sturdy. This thing has enough tools to do some quick fixes if something breaks on your car, house or just about anywhere because you have the basic tools to make the repair.

Seriously, you NEED one of these for those just in case days.

I really can't imagine leaving the house without my leatherman. I own the CS4, and what I love about it is that it has a very nice array of tools, in a chassis which is small and light enough to be carried around constantly. I have mine attached to my keys, via the lanyard attachment. Any heavier, and it would be too heavy to have hanging from the ignition of my car.

My only real complaint with the CS4 is the lack of a ruler. This is because, for the sake of size, the outer edges have been slightly curved. Not a huge loss. I also would have liked it if they had lost the awl (has anyone EVER actually had to use one of those things?) and replaced it with something a bit more useful, like a little magnifying glass or something.

Overall, if you're looking for a tool small enough to keep with you at all times, you can't go wrong with a CS4. More accurately, though, you can't go wrong with a Leatherman in general. They have two major advantages over normal 'Swiss-Army Knives':

1) The Pliers. This may seem like a bit of a gimmick, but I tell you they are a HUGE lifesaver.

2) The screwdrivers. Because leathermans are basically two small SAK's side by side, they have more interior space to work with, which most models use for a few little screwdrivers. Again, a lifesaver.

Just pick the model that suits you best, though I've found that the larger models I've come into contact with have seemed somewhat unwieldly, and largely useless. Some of these things get MIGHTY big.
