Who all has a Keating Hornet form MoD?

And what are your thoughts on it, and specifically the handle, does it facilitate a good grip?

Although I like the blade design on the Hornet better, I like the handel on the the Watson better. It is a bit longer and feels more comfortable in my hand. Can't have it all I guess. The Hornet still has a good grip and all in all it is my favorite of the folders. The Lady Hawk is my least favorite because it is just too small.

The handle does feel a bit small to me, in the normal grip but I e-mailed Keating about the knife and what I undestand is that he primarily designed the knife to be used in the reverse grip (in conjunction with the kydex sheath-knife open- he desingned for it and his drawpoint knife defence system).

In the reverse grip the knife is a gem.
 
Cool Thanks.
