D ddarker I liked the size of the 3.5, but I wasn't a fan of the lack of contouring. I ended up landing on the Guardian 3 Sheepsfoot (V4E steel), and it was a good compromise of the contouring of the 3 while giving you the sharpening choil so you weren't right up on the blade if you have thicker fingers. I wear a medium (US 9) Mechanix glove to give you an idea of hand size. Wider hand and thick fingers, but my fingers are a little shorter for my hand size.

I'll probably end up selling off the 3 and 3.5 pictured above, but hadn't gotten around to it (always say I am going to sell several off, then never get around to all the work that entails... good pics, descriptions, etc... 😂 ). One of these days!
