Finger grooves, yes or no

Blue Sky · Sep 26, 2003

For those who use the 110, do you like/prefer finger grooves or a smooth handle? Please post your preference and why. Thanks

I prefer the finger grooves.It has a 'slimmer' feel.

FINGER GROOVE!!
I use mine with a one-armed bandit and the finger groove works better for this. Also, as already mentioned, it does give one a little more secure grip on the knife. I also really prefer the appearance of the finger.
Also, if you haven't tried one with the BG-42 blade yet, and you really use your knife, I highly recommend it.

Thanks everyone for your replies. I think the balance has tipped in favor of grooves... Next stop, Pete's!

My only "user" 110 is a 1989 standard fingergrooved model that my wife bought for me at the 2002 Blade show. The Buck 110 fingergrooves fit my hand perfectly so you already know my vote on the 110. Besides, I think the fingergrooved knives are prettier to look at.

Oops, almost forgot!

Order the BG-42 blade, you will not regret it!

Love the FG 112. I've only got plain handled 110s though, not quite as easy to find the FG at Wally World.
