hey all,

i've been researching the Dozier AT for a while now since i've been looking for a small PP EDC for a while now and i've yet to own a Dozier.
I've used the search button alot to make sure i'm not asking the same questions that have been asked over and over.. although i'm sure somewhere in the archives this question has been asked before.
I'm a fairly large guy 6'4" 300lb and my hands aren't small.. but they aren't huge either, my hands fit just fine in a set of Large welding gloves with the fingers actually being a bit too long... stupid stubby fingeritis !
i'm just worried that this handle will be too small for me... I don't need a knife with an huge grip.. in fact i find some knives tend to over do it with handle size such as the BK-7 i've got. The handle on the CRKT Hissastu fits my hand just fine.. i'm just hoping someone will be able to give me a clear idea on if the handle will be too small for me or if it'll be just right.
again I know this really is up to the user and no one can truly tell me what i'll be comfortable with.. but i'd like to still hear everyones opinion.
i'm going to be ordering from A.G. Russell and i've been told that if i'm not happy I can always send it back... I think I fear the idea that i'll love the quality of the knife so much i'll overlook it's size deficit just so I can finally own a Dozier :)

thanks for any input

I guess my question was too specific.. maybe I should have made my header line read Want Knife to fight Ninja's with !! tell me which one if betterer !!

ah well I went ahead and ordered it... if it's too small i'll just give it away to some homeless ninja.
 
6'2" @ 255lbs here. I have fairly large hands but had no issues at all with the handle size of the Dozier(s) I've owned/handled.
They tend to be a bit smaller than you might expect but once you start using the knife you don't even notice, at least I never did.
If it weren't for hard times I never would have sold mine.
