I have the ESEE 6, but I don't yet have the Junglas. Can anyone tell me how the handle on the Junglas compares to that of the 6 (width curvature etc.)? The Junglas seems to be a little more rounded off and slightly less "boxy". Is this the case? Subjective responses as to which is more comfortable for you are welcome.

Thanks.

I think both handles are perfect for their intended knife. The notable thing to me about the Junglas handle is after cutting down several 4" trees over the weekend, I had no hot spots on my hand and still had feeling in my hand. I tried using a couple of my other large knives to cut down a 2" tree and the vibration transfer made it feel like my teeth were coming loose.

I'm still amazed at what a great handle material micarta is.


BTW Shotgunner11, nice tat!!!!
 
Thanks guys. I think the Junglas is definitely one of the next few blades I'll be buying. I'm glad to hear that the Junglas handle is more rounded than the 6, which is not really that comfortable for me because it feels a little boxy in my hand. After I get the Junglas the only one missing will be the 5....I'm sure it's only a matter of time though, before I have it too ;)
 
The handle on the Junglas is one of the most comfortable I have ever handled. Feels like an extension of the arm. :thumbup:
