Kershaw and the Leek

I suppose I have to say something here as nobody seems to be positioning themselves on this side of the fence.
I actually don't like the Leek. I bought one (two actually) and after carrying it for a while I just dont enjoy using it.
That doesnt mean its a bad knife! its a fantastic blade, the s30v is a great steel, the frame lock is superb, no wiggle or anything.
I just don't like folding knives that small. I am 6'6" and have very large hands and I don't like a knife that doesn't have a minimum 3.5" blade.
I feel like the leek is just too awkward to hold and I cant get a good grip on it.
The only other Kershaw knife I own is an NRG 2 and I don't like it either.
I thought I did when I bought it but I just don't appreciate the aesthetics as much as other people do.

sigh, I guess Im just a benchmade guy...

6' 6'' with big hands....dude.... ZT!

Try the Junkyard Dog. Fits large hands well (don't let the clip dissuade you, it can be modified or replaced if you don't like it).
