What are the ergos like on the Buck Strider AR and GB knives? They look like bricks.
 
Pretty good... they're hand-filling all right, and heavy, but I find the grip surprisingly comfortable. The edges were really sharp at first but a few swipes of fine sandpaper (don't breathe the dust!) fixed that.
 
Like Ed said, they are kinda clunky but actually carry very well. I was carrying my large version last night, and was surprised at how easy it carried. I have not gotten around to smoothing the corners on mine yet, so it is still kinda blocky feeling.
 
You either love it or hate it. Gotta handle one yourself and decide. Personally I just can't put it down. Holding one in hand makes u feel that u know u have something that is almost impossible to fail u. Ergos' fine too. Takes a very short while to get used to the rough finish of the handles, then again they aren't really that rough. Recommend.
 
I LOVE the AR/GB ergos.

They look like a brick shthouse, but they feel great and have incredible grip/traction in-hand.

Highly recommended. In fact, one of the very few folders that the wife approves of.

If you don't like the sharp G10, take some fine grit sandpaper and have at at them, but do it under running water.

They carry very thick in pocket though...
