I have had this knife in my imagination for at least a decade.
Finally someone produced it. (none like it that I have seen )
I bought one ; COULD NOT RESIST .
Well what say ? . . .

HEY !
AI's first useful application !
you saw it here FIRST .

Naw I said way back in the day (I looked it up = 2016 ) that all I wanted was a Griptillian with a "bulbous" , sculpted , textured , relieved (for weight) Titanium handle . Just duplicate the stock FRN one in Ti and I'm there . Even 154CM would have done it for me .
or
a Lion Steel Ti handled knife (somene recommended the Lionsteel SR1/SR2) .
Very very close to what I wanted.

Maybe a little less Linebackerish and a little more Quarterback .
aaaaaannnnnnd we are back to a nonexistant textured Titanium Griptillian .

I don't need the "speedholes?" but at least they relieve the weight and give a little purchase on the handle . Mostly that bulbous and swoopy with finger groove shape with kind of handle forward at the front is doing it for me.

Thanks AISanta Clause !

Was even working surprisingly well on the cutting board = I like a blade that has a spine shaped well enough to rake the food off the board and it was doing the job well even with the sorta Harpoon blade.
I'm pleased .

Yep that Narwhal is pretty close (but different enough obviously) .
If there was a higher end one with axis or liner lock and better steel , even 3V , I might spend some money .

Higher End One :
(I don't know how to say what I mean with out irritating the Mods. I could say non off shore but that excludes Lion Steel and I don't mean that . . . you know what I mean).

Just glad I'm not stepping on anyone's livelihood .

Thanks everyone !
