Love Handles

Got my Izula II the other day.
Hold it in my hand, looked at it for a while. Handlea are nice and all, but............I like big handles and I can not lie

.

So, took some paracord and .....

.......and finally here she is, big butt and all, ready to rock whatever comes her way.

That doesn't look to bad. Does it still fit in the sheath?

Fits in the sheath just like it should :thumbup:

Cool deal. I couldn't tell if the wrapping was to far forward. Thanks.

I prefer full sized handles as well. They don't conceal as well, but they sure are more comfortable. I just don't even carry my HEST, sometimes the Escabar, but for use, I've been carrying the IMP.

Is it pregnant...? Maybe 'lil Izula III's on the way...?

An Izula III - stainless, without the pinky trap - sure sounds good to me.

I'd buy an Izzy III that replaced the HEST's blade size with a bigger handle. I'd want the sheath to be a horizontal carry that would also carry the NAV cards and an AH1.

Are the micarta handles not big enough for you?

Same here. I have made a thread or two about it but didn't get too much of a positive response. I love the HEST minus the prybar/bottle opener. A HEST-sized Izula III with bigger blade and slightly bigger handle (or not) would be sweet.
