[The Warrior]

Tweener handles are too dang small for this ol' boy. I do have an 18, that Ethan gifted to me.

My fingers are short but my palms are massive and perfectly square. It’s weird because I’m tall, you’d figure I’d have long palms and fingers

You know what they say: big hands, big feet - big socks, big gloves!
TBH, I don't think I have very large hands, but nearly all of my tweeners have liners to give the handle a little more...substance.

Well, I’ve got a bone structure like an old post and beam house. Might explain my hands lol. Awesome set up BTW!

I have wide palms, but relatively thin fingers. Here's a 16 in my hand. Not too comfortable for me:

I do believe 1066vik has larger hands than me. He can 3 finger a BK2, haha.

I have large hands too. One of the biggest reasons I fell in love with the Becker line.

Damn.....

Idk how you guys buy knives?
I dislike Most knives I buy because of small handles....and mine aren't nearly as big

 

[The Warrior]

VERY large hands...

Perhaps thicker custom scales would add more comfort and control? Not much we can do about a short handle though.

Coincidentally, the 16 is my carry knife today. Stock scales are a bit smoother than I’d like but the ergonomics is great.

Could always make custom scales, and extend them a bit, like Creaky Bones did on this custom BK11:
