Now that it's been out a while, what are your thoughts? Is it a slicer for sure? How well does the new lock face work? How easy/hard does it "break in"? Is the handle hand frendly as my old SNG CC?:)
 
Saw this one in the GBU section recently

Ive had a Sj75 for less than an a week and I already have lock rock. I did get it used but there was no sign of use or lock rock at the time. The only thing I noticed when I recieved it was the lock was very sticky. It always rubbed against the tang when closing. Now there is no rubbing but rocking. Im a strider noob, and I have read that the SJ75 had some new locking improvements over the past models.
So my questions are,

What were the improvements in the lock?
Does strider harden the Ti lock bar to prevent wear?
What is "Josh"'s email? And is that the P.O.C. to send my knife in for work?

Overall, I really do like the knife. Its sharp as all get out and feels great in the hand. But I dont want it to have problems after a week of carrying it EDC.


Only report of it I've seen, though. I'm hoping it's isolated because I really like the looks of it and want to make it my first Strider.
 
that is isolated; hundreds of user on other forums reporting nothing but great feedback. I have the new lock in a SnG and is great
 
It sucks I have the only reported lock rock SJ75. This is my first strider and I really do like the knife and it has been in my pocket everyday since having it. I have noticed when I use the knife for extended periods the lock will tighten and there is no more rock. Does anyone know where I can find Josh's email so I can get this fixed when the time comes?
