Opinions on What to do for my knife handle?????

[jeremy1517]

One of my knives has a paracord wrapped handle and I'm trying to decide whether to keep the paracord handle, replace it with scales, or use nothing at all.

I've never been a huge fan of paracord handles but these aren't bad. The main purpose of the paracord handle is to hold a small ferro rod in the tang. The knife is actually comfortable with no handle on it. I know that if I put scales on it I'll have to remove the ferro rod, which isn't a big deal.

Here is the knife. What would you do?

Paracord, scales, or nothing at all?

If you like it like this, keep it like this.
Just an idea, lots of people have there fire steel on the sheeth

If it is comfortable every way then it is purely cosmetics and personal preference. I personally would put some nice deep burl scales on it and carry the ferro rod separately IMHO. -calvin
