Leatherman - Juice C2 Multitool, Granite Gray

The Juice C2 is THE perfect multi-tool. This is the first review I have written, bit this tool makes it worth writing one.It's built well, not too big, but bigger than the Squirt, which I found too small to be useful. The Philips head on the Juice grips well with different sized screws, and the pliers have real grip. One weakness I found is the bottle opener. I would not rely on it on a regular basis, as it is very thin and the slightest side load broke mine. I also do carry a 3" folding knife as my primary blade, but the blade on the Juice comes very sharp from the factory, and serves as a great backup. I carry this knife in the back pocket of work slacks and jeans; it is comfortable in any pair of pants. I absolutely recommend this tool to anyone, and would replace mine immediately if it were lost or stolen. Buy this, you will not regret it.

I had an older version of this multitool that was my everyday carry knife for years. I purchased this one expecting it to be the same just with a bit of color scheme redesign. Unfortunately this newer version is a little lacking. The knife itself is shorter than the original one, although the size of the recess where it folds in to is the same. In my opinion it looks a little odd with a stubby knife in a long recess. The knife is also curved rather than tapering to a point. The older version had metal sides, but on this newer one the granite grey colored pieces are plastic (a hard plastic, but plastic nonetheless). Is it still going to get the job done when I need it to? Well, yes, it's a Leatherman. Is it as attractive and well made as the older one I carried? Not so much. I've only had it for a week so we'll see if it is as durable as my old one, but with those plastic pieces I'm not so sure.Edit- As was pointed out in the comments, the sides aren't plastic but rather are anodized aluminum. They still don't feel as sturdy as the older model. It's still a handy little multitool but comparing it to the older one it just isn't as solid feeling.

Having had multiple utility tools, there are a couple of things I always look for. One, all tools should be easy to open and use. Two, it should fit in my pocket. Three, it should have the tools I need. This Leatherman Juice C2 Multi-tool comes close. It is easy to open and most of the tools are easy to open (the collection of small screw drivers are a little sticky and small). It definitely fits in my pocket. The only tool I miss is a pair of scissors. I can overlook the minor issues. Leatherman products are known for quality and being well made, and since this is my third Leatherman tool I can attest to that fact, the Juice C2 is solid and feels great in my hand. Every time I forget to put it in my pocket (or when I am travelling and cannot carry it though security) I find myself reaching for it to use for something! Recommended.

Ordered a new one , and received an old used one with a yellow sticker on it saying display!!!! And it was ont a grey hanble but orange!!! Run away

Good tool selection, nice and compact, good size to weight ratio, decent price for what you get. On the other hand, the plastic portion of the grip is not rounded off into the handle, so it really bites into my hand when I'm holding it (fixed by sanding the whole plastic portion down) The opening and pliers are very stiff, even after applying a few drops of machine oil. The corkscrew has the opposite problem - it is quite loose and was tough to get enough leverage to pop a cork. I had to resort to pulling the cork out without the assist.Basically, I bought this instead of a Swiss Army knife because I wanted the corkscrew and a more durable body (Victorinox doesn't make a corkscrew SAK with aluminum scales) but the QA on these Leathermans is not up to scratch. Disappointed.

Cork screw flimsy and hard to open bottle and looked like it was not going to last. Knife and other parts did not measure up to other leatherman multitool. Expensive for what it can offer.

This is a small multi-tool that is rugged and very useful. It has all the tools that I need without extra gimmicks to make it bulkier or heavier. It's the third one that I've owned - the others have "walked off". After using it for 3-4 years, it has become my pocket tool of choice.

Great multitool. It's small enough that I will actually carry it with me everywhere I go. I have larger multitools that I've used from Gerber and Leatherman, but they're so bulky, I won't carry them - which leaves me without a tool when I need one. I really like this version with a corkscrew, since I'm a wine drinker, and would rather not keep a separate corkscrew in my pocket.
