I have big hands. I've been thinking about getting a ti lock for a few months. I'd have to hold the

scale with my finger in the front choil to have the scale fit my hand. I'm not sure if the scale would

be long enough if I hold the knife like that.

My little finger is even with the lanyard hole on a large 21.

Comments from ti lock owners with big hands appreciated.
 
I have regular sized "man-hands"...Thanks 'Seinfeld'...And find nearly all knife handles to be too small for me. Especially big, long, heavy fixed blades that have very little gripping surface around the handle. Am curious about the Ti-Lock also. Good luck in your question...;-)
 
Is there Anyone out there in knife land with Big Hands and a ti lock ? At least 4 of us want to want to know, is the scale big enough for your hand

if you use the front choil.


Guys with regular and medium size hands, we don't want to hear from you. Your hands aren't Big enough. :D:)
 
Ok, so I don't have big hands, but I can show a large and a Ti-Lock side by side in my fat hand :)

 
Good luck in your question, clockman. Thought I had regular sized hands, but do wear LARGE sized gloves. That Ti does look small. Thanks for the photo Ajack60. Do you find that Ti too small for you?...;-)

Id say I have Regular sized hands but do wear a size large glove. Not XL by any means and can just barely one hand grip an official size basketball.







Not using choil...

Choked up on choil...


Comparison against small 21 & large 21...
 
Those are good sized hands there. I'm surprised how well the Ti-Lock fits you.
 
Those are excellent pics wtlj^^ I sat here and duplicated all the positions in your pics with my tilock, and they match almost identical in my hands in lengths except the thickness of your hands. Mine are skinnier. Id say if anyone has bigger or smaller hands then you, theyre still way good to go on using a tilock.
 
Thanks wtlj. Also compared mine with yours. Mine narrower, but a tad bit longer. Ti looks small in your mitts, but Large Seb's are the only ones I know. I like them for their large, capable size...;-)
 
I've got pretty decent size hands (Large in gloves typically) and I find the Ti Lock ergo's very good for my hands. It is a very versatile shape and has a lot of blade for as small and light as it is. Sorry I don't have any pic's of it in my hands, but I can show you my paw's gripping a Super Roadhouse (custom Emerson), and yet I have no problem at all getting a good hold on the Ti Lock.

 
I wear large or extra large gloves. The Ti-lock fits my hands fine. My sebenza is a small, and I don't find it too small. Sorry I can't do any pictures.
 
clockman...send me your address. I'll send you mine to try. Only if you promise to carry it and give us your thoughts. [emoji6]
 
clockman... I sent your TI Lock out today as promised to trial! Don't forget to give us all a review!
 
I'm interested to see clockman's review/findings here. I really like the Ti-lock, but I'm 6'5" with hands at least an inch bigger in both length and width than wtlj's hands, so if clockman likes the Ti-lock, I might too. :)

Wtlj, thank you for doing this for clockman. All of us other big guys thank you as well. :thumbup:
 
I got Terry's Ti Lock yesterday. Thanks Terry.

The knife is too small for my hand. I have to have my fore finger all the way to the front of the choil on

on the end of the cutting edge, my other finger is at the very end of the scale. The knife doesn't have a lanyard on it.

I don't use lanyards so having the lanyard on the knife wouldn't have made a difference.

I lied a little about not using a lanyard. I have a couple of smalls with a small piece of rawhide in the lanyard hole.

I have the knot Tight against my finger. This is the only way I can use/hold a small.
 
This makes me miss mine. My lock failed a month ago and I got cut pretty bad, it's a month now and crk still has not looked at it. Usually warranty moves faster. But I miss it.
 
A 6'3" friend of mine checked out my Tilock and his first response was that it was too small to grip comfortably.

He's a big guy. He said he liked the blade itself, but just wasn't digging the rather short and slim (for him) handle. Exact same reaction he had for a small inlayed Sebbie.
