I have 2 Leatherman Juices (S2 & KF4) and was thinking of upgrading to the XE6 so that I could EDC a single tool. I took a look at an EX6 in the shop and I wansn't that impressed with it. Some of the tools are in the middle of the outer handle and are not easy to get to. Also the pliers are not in the middle of the tool but offset to one side so that one side of the handle is wider than the other (the S2 suffers from this as well, although not to the same extent). The corkscrew also seems a little flimsy and looks as if it will easy bend.
But what really concerned me was that when closing the pliers one side (the side with the 3 flat screwdrivers) kept getting jammed into the screwdrivers; the tool would not close and it was difficult to unjam it. I have never seen this on my S2 or KF4. Has an EX6 owner had this problem or was the display model in the shop faulty?
