I am not a very big guy, in fact I am 180 cm tall (5 foot something?), wear medium to large gloves. Yet it seems that virtually every handle of a knife I have bought over the last 2 years is too narrow/thin.
As many others here on BF have mentioned, so I know I am not alone, my "grail" handle is the Spyderco Bushcrafter handle, at least for a bushcraft style knife. A hunter, chopper etc. is a different story. I believe this handle is very close to as good as it gets. So, my question to all knife makers and knife users is: why is that? Why don't I see many more thick/round/full handles?
I am not saying that this one is the perfect solution of a handle but you get my idea!
Thanks for any input!
