Most Comfortable Production Folders?

The most comfortable production folder I've ever held was the Spyderco Massad Ayoob. Other than that, I could cut all day with:

Buck/Mayo 172
Buck 112
Bucl 881
or
EKI CQC7B

ETA: I forgot about the Spyderco Lum Chinese!

That's of the ones that I own. Still wish I hadn't sold my Massad Ayoob. Beautiful folder all around!
 
I tend to like knives that aren't designed with any specific ergonomics... knives that will fit just about any hand comfortably.

So my top two choices are the Buck 110 and Benchmade 710. Those two knives feel good in just about any grip and are comfortable for prolonged heavy cutting.

I also really like the Spyderco Native. It fits my hand nearly perfectly, but doesn't work in as many grips and isn't as comfortable for heavy cutting after a while.

What! No one said the BM Ares series, great balance, supports multiple grips with equal comfort, and on top of all that, just one heck of a knife...:D

I think everyone else here is talking handle design, but I find comfort in my pocket to be a big plus.
1) Benchmade 940 Osborne - handle and pocket comfort
2) Benchmade Presidio folder - bulky in the pocket but fits hand like a glove
3) Gerber Harsey Air Ranger - inexpensive, perfectly flat for pocket carry
4) Kershaw Storm II - expensive, built like a tank, flat, flat pocket carry
5) Spyderco Native - lightweight, flat design, perfect for any pocket
 
Only Vassili and I think the Kershaw Spec Bump is extremely comfortable in the hand? Its also very easy to carry and is easy on the pockets.
