Guys I have some terrible news.
The No. 2 came in today and I have rendered my grip on both hands useless for the next 24 hours. I can't even close the No. 1 now.
I shredded open the package, flexed out my fingers, and gave it my all - closed it 90% shut on my first try, but something sprained in my right hand and now it's going to have to recooperate. I can close it about 60% shut with my left hand.
This thing is just absolutely brutal, a totally different league then even the No. 1. I am now seriously starting to wonder if the No. 3 is realistic if you aren't a body builder.
I will continue to post progress. Enjoy the video!
