Gerber Gator lock back

I like the drop point version but not the clip point. The handle is really comfortable and the texture makes it pretty grippy. On the other hand, the fullness of the handle makes it more comfortable but also makes it kinda thick to carry around as well.
 
If I started using a belt carry folder again, I would probably carry the ATS-34 drop point Gator. The handle is the most comfortable handle I've ever encountered on ANY folding knife.
The blade on the ATS-34 version is full height flat ground to a wonderfully thin edge.
The pivot tension on mine is slick enough to deploy the blade with a quick flick of the wrist.
As a belt carry folder, I think very highly of this knife.
I even like it better than the venerable Buck 110.:eek:
 
As already noted above I think the handle is too chunky. May be good for use on a camping trip or just for periods of 3 or 4 days but as an EDC that handle is too big and awkward IMO.
