Even after all these years, its still incredible to find people who just don't get WHY the XM-18 is designed as it is. Foremost, its a TOOL for First Responders. Most everything about it is designed to facilitate that function, INCLUDING THE DAMN CLIP. If you need your knife in a hurry the last thing you need is to fumble reaching for it. Having 3/4" sticking above your pocket is a FEATURE for easy access. You'll find hundreds of thousands of Endura/Delica owners not complaining though their clip/position is about the same. And don't give me the "but that's what the lanyard is for" nonsense. Only dweebs and idiots use lanyards, they are easily snagged, leading to a lost knife. That's what a proper clip is for. Know it, learn it, live it.
Wondering if the thumb stud works easily to deploy so wouldn’t have a sore finger from flipper

The question now is, will there be a Gen 7?

Well I haven’t heard that one before, but I’ll take it!
