The 0450 and 0452 knives bother me. They are either too big for the 0452, or too small for the 0450. They're like rejects from the Goldilocks story.
I have the 0450cf and the rear finger bump created a hotspot for me. I finally got bold and sanded it off with a belt sander, then cleaned it up by hand. It makes the knife actually fit now. And it fits very well. I love it. The downside is that i now have a silver spot on the handle. I wish there was a way to strip the dlc coating off the handle entirely, but as a functional tool, it's great.
And since i am struggling to upload images directly to this post, here is the gallery link https://imgur.com/a/MfYd8MA
