Why is it called "ultra grip"? What and how is it gripping?

Maybe you've already answered this for yourself, by now, but if not, here goes. There is a "tacky", non-slip surface on the side of the wide part of the sling that rides against your clothing. It basically "grips" by friction. Hope that helps.

So, the grip is fine. The trouble is with the force applied versus the strength of the metal. I have one gamey big toenail, and I have to slowly progress the length of the nail to get it to cut. It's a little bit of a pain, but it does eventually work. And you'd be hard-pressed to have a nail thicker than mine. Yeesch.

Thanks for the info. I will also be buying the grip because I have bigger hands and would enjoy the longer battery life.

Its annoying that amazon lumped the 'Grip' and 'Snap' into one product listing when the two are fundamentally different. The Grip secures your phone via spring loaded tabs, and is basically universal - any phone will work with it. The Snap, on the other hand, uses magnets and metal plates to hold your phone - You need to secure a metal plate onto your phone, either by hiding it inside the battery compartment, between your phone and its protective case, or crazy gluing it to the phone's backing. YMMV but I prefer the Grip over the Snap.

The one is in a more protected rubberized case. My ultra stopped working after a modest workout where I guess I sweated on it. I think the one is shielded by a rubberized clip that holds it away from your body.

I think I prefer the strong Hold. But that is more of a personal choice. I don't like the tough/spiky feel of the mega hard.

I don't know but it feels good and is high quality. easy to grip and resist scrapes and abrasion well. Ive used mine a lot and it is holding up well

I was a little concerned about the grip at first as well....but it actually has pretty good grip. The squared off edges give it a nice solid feel in your hand. I have never felt like it was going to slip out of my hands.

Grip is adequite. I think it could be a little stiffer but it works well in a deep pan. I mostly use it in a 4" deep frying pan and it holds well.

Your hand on the grip activates the switch. It doesn't take much pressure to turn it on. It turns off when you let go. The way it is designed to be used makes this switch mechanism logical.

Great! Thanks for the info - it helps to know what else may or may not be needed.BTW, I have advised many people to use the wrist strap, because you never know when it may slip, or be accidentally bumped, and fall out of your grip (no-klutz intended)!

I believe all of the "hammeless ultra-litre" have the same frame. Grips really enhance your control. Good investment.

Just the opposite. There is a very slight brushed feeling to it. Great grip.

I think it's instantly more tacky than the original leather grip. If you stretch the grip tightly while you're wrapping it over the handle, especially at the start on the butt end where I grip it, it seems to last long enough that I never worry about the cost of replacement. Also if you clean the handle after removing the original grip and let it dry, it seems to stick better. No more overgrips for me.

When using it normally, I have no problems at all with gripibility. I've never used it wet or with wet hands, but that might become slippery. But normal use, I have no problems :) I would say it's slick, but not at all slippery

I have done both. Depends on how thick you like your grip, personal preference. It works great both ways depending on how you prefer it.

This is a handshake bat, one can use it as a penhold but its not very comfortable, there are specific penhold bats which are more comfortable to grip and has rubber only on one side, i have two penhold bats which i bought from the far east
