Hiya folks,
I have a question that hopefully anyone with Chiruwa Ang Khola experience can help me with.
In the review linked at the bottom of this, the reviewer mentions the full, flat tang being very rough on the hand/arm when chopping olive trees (which I assume is a very dense wood).
What I'd like to know is if the Chiruwa's tang/handle is really that much more punishing on the user than a standard rat tail tang. I sure like the extra durability the Chiruwa seems to posess, but not at the expense of at least moderate comfort.

Thanks for reading, and any opinions shared.
Take care.
