Hey guys,

Just got the 755 (First Production #98 of 1000) in today. Still trying to figure out my overall opinion of the knife. I do know that the pocket clip on mine is not that friendly....and I wear slacks for the most part. I think the major problem is not the clip itself but the fact that the G-10 is very textured and provides too much friction. A smooth G-10 on the lock side would probably be a better choice. Anyway here are the pics:















Please post your pics.


Joe

Nice pics, like the comparison shots too.
I just can't get over how big these are for their given specs. When I had first looked at the specs I was thinking it'd be in line with my Strider PT. I haven't yet received my pre-order 755, but I can already tell that it will dwarf my PT. It seems this knife is big in every aspect except raw length.
As for the tight clip, it was mentioned in another thread that it could be tweaked slightly with a cloth wrapped screwdriver. I imagine it would also be easy enough to sand the G10 that is directly under the clip.
I'm starting to wonder if there were actually changes made to the clip as was indicated for the reason of delayed release. If so, it must have been subtle.

I hadn't realized that one entire side of the knife, plus the "backspacer" is all one huge chunk of G10. I really like how monolithic that looks.

It will definitely have to be a hold-it-first sort of knife for me, as I have not been huge on short handles in the past. Maybe the MPR's thickness will make up for that.

The comparison photo is something, the 755 is larger than I though it would be. That's a handful of knife alright, just am a little concerned about what you guys are saying about the clip/G-10 eating pants material.
