Anyone have pics comparing S-1 & F-1 Handles?

I Love the F-1 but I am looking at the S-1 now.

Anyone have pictures of them side by side from a top view of their spines.

I am concerned with handle thickness and length.

Thanks so much

I threw in my A1 too.It's the next step up.
Side by side.

Hope this helps.I love these knives.
 
Thanks Savage,

I knew you'd come through. From your pic that handle on the S-1 is longer than the F-1. The Fallkniven site has the F-1 as only 1 mm shorter.

It looks definitely more than 1mm shorter!
Do you own an F1 already? I do and if I were about to get another knife from Falknieven... it will probable be an A1. The S1 doesn't seem like much of a change, ¡neither in size or weight!

I asked about the handles in savageicslayers other thread, but it looks like the A1 handle is a lot bigger, may have to pick one up!
 
I might have to get the A-1. I am looking for a more compact knife for long hikes.
 
Now that I've seen the F1 and S1 spine to spine, I gotta have the S1. I was worried about it being too thick to slice properly, but that doesn't appear to be the case.
 
The A1 is a totally different beast than the other 2.The handle fills my hand perfectly and feels strong.It's a quarter of an inch thick.I'll have to find a niche for all 3 now.
Glad I can help.If you want more pics I'll try to get them taken this weekend.
