Most Comfortable Knife?

[RainbowCanyons]

What's the most comfortable knife you've held both in hand and in pocket?

 

[goodeyesniper]

Hrm. going to have to say the FRN Native S30V.

It disappears in your pocket, and in hand it carries like a much larger knife because of the choil. GREAT, secure grip on a small knife.

A bit more comfortable in the hand is the Spyderco Military. More noticeable in the pocket, obviously, but still carries deceptively well for having such a generous handle.

In the hand:

So beefie it feels like a fixed blade

In the pocket: rides low and relatively thin compared to some of my other edcs.

For "tactical"....my Ti-Military

For traditional....my GEC Serpentine Jack

 

[dark impaler]

In hand...Kershaw Blur.

In pocket...small Sebenza.

In the hand-scrapyard sod, not so much in the pocket!
Sog Vulcan or Spyderco native for pocket knives. Comfort I hand, disappears in the pocket till you need them.

CS recon 1. Feels like it was made for my hands. I have whittled for hours without blisters or hotspots

Also very flat so rides well in pocket

RJ Martin Q-36. A joy to carry, hold, and use.

 

[BePrepared]

my custom skinner made by Mike Conner.... by far the best knife i own

 

[Dorito Monk]

Benchmade Presidio.

In the hand, the most comfortable knife I've held is easily the ZT 0200. In the pocket, I don't really notice tiny differences in weight. But I guess a traditional would be the most comfortable to carry.

Awesome pictures and answers! Currently I think the Manix 2 XL feels like it was meant to be in my hand specifically- and like gooeyesniper said, I think it's because of the choil. The insane jimping also does give some real traction and confidence.

In my pocket Ill have to go with the Kershaw scamp. It's out of production sadly, but it's super thin and nearly symmetrical.

In the hand, Fiddleback Forge Bushcrafter (bottom)

In the Pocket, 0561

Folder- The best I have felt is the Lionsteel Sr-1.

 

[RainbowCanyons]

Oh I wish I had the money for a titanium Sr-1.....

Hrm. going to have to say the FRN Native S30V.

It disappears in your pocket, and in hand it carries like a much larger knife because of the choil. GREAT, secure grip on a small knife...snipped...

The Native is a great ergonomic knife! the opening kinda sucks on the one's I've used though due to scales flexing and binding up the blade. Delica4s are also amazing, no choil but great handle size. Probably the best knife with no faults for grip is the rescue junior, I can think of no situation/grip in which I've found it uncomfortable.

Of course currently I have an Emerson Mini commander that fits my hand like a glove, so hand size does matter.

For me:

In hand, a dexter russel butcher knife (sad but true).







In the pocket, an alox bantam.
