Perfect fit

Deffinetly my Dozier Straight Personal. I love the finger grooved micarta handles. It just fits my hand perfectly. It also carries amazingly well on my belt. I don't even notice I have it on and sometime have to pat it to check. Never gets in the way, but always there when I need it.

If you like the full size Carnivore, then you should try the Carnivore Cub. I think it fits my hand even better than the big Carnivore. I also love the handle on my Benchmade 940 and oddly enough
the handle on my Spyderco Navigator as well.
 
My best fitting knife is my Bob Dozier Texas #6. The grip doesn't look like anything special, but it becomes an extension of my hand like nothing else I've handled.

Outside of customs my favorite is the Spyderco S.P.O.T. They did an amazing job of improving on the already near-perfect grip of Fred Perrin's La Griffe.

The Commander fits my hands perfectly. Feels good in regular or reverse grip. Next to that would be my large Sebbie.
 
Folder: BM 720. Fits my hand perfectly and feels great.
Fixed: Fällkniven F-1. Never thought I'd like a rubber handled knife, but this one just works for me!

The Porcupine
 
My Kershaw/Ken Onion Random Task was the first 100$+ knife, and as much as it pained me to fork out 150$ (canadian) for it, I fell in love with the feel of the handle, and the speed-safe feature didn't hurt. Unfortunately, it's a few years old now, and doesn't lock up as nicely as it use to, and the blade is starting to show some side-to-side play, so I don't carry it anymore.
Now, I carry my new Spydie Endura lightweight everyday, and it feels like a dream, and is lightning-fast. I'm not sure if I'm crazy about the handle being FRN, not sure if I trust it strength-wise, but I don't plan on using the knife to cut down any trees.
I really like the feel of my CS Recon Tanto, but that's not exactly an EDC knife, a bit big and scary for city use.
 
best for me are anything designed by bob kasper, his hand and mine must be similar, because my crawford perfigo and ti kasper fit me perfectly(also my CRKT kasper, of course). they are among my favorite knives. i guess i prefer the perfigo, slimmer,longer, easier to carry for me, and i like the "peg" option for IWB carry vs the clip. but the KFF is a great one also.


some other notable mentions include the BM AFCK (axis/liner, either one), EKI SOCFK(and spec-war) and CQC8 and commander also, and the MT SOCOM elite and LCC also fit very well, really like the rubber pads on both sides of the elite vs the std SOCOM.

My Dozier Straight Hunter is easily the most comfortable knife in my collection. Bob Dozier really knows how to design an ergonomic handle.
 
The best fitting knife I own is still my good ol Schrade Uncle Henry LB7 (Schrade's version of the Buck 110).
If it were'nt so damn heavy, and if it had a thumb-hole and pocket-clip, and better steel...

But my second most comfortable knife is definitely my Spyderco G-10 Police!

Good luck,
Allen.
 
It's a funny thing. I posted on 12-27 with the Carson E&E along with the Smith LDC-5 as the best fits, and they still are, just have to add the large model 2 framelock from Mike Obenauf. This is the thicker special order version I got right before Christmas. In the past week I have added stair-tread tape to the handle and it has made a big difference in how the knife feels in the hand. The handle shape has always been a winner for me since I picked up one the first time in September of last year. Just better now with the addition of a grippier surface!
 
I had Audra make an interpretation of a 5" hunter that I'd bought at a local show. She made one up in damascus and tailored the handle based on my suggestions... Her piece is the one blade in my collection that evokes the term 'alive' when I think of describing it! :eek: I also just got one of her Aloha Cowgirls and have found it to be the most comfortable folder I own to use. Yes, I've got several Benchmades and a couple of CRKT's... but they all feel like pocketknives... Hers feels like the best pair of shoes one can own - fits like a second skin, comfortable, supportive... and looks good, too! :D
 
The single best fitting folder for me is the REKAT Carnivour. It's wide enough to be comfortable and you can really lock into it.

Others that are nice for me are the Spyderco C54 Calypso, C52 Calypso Jr, the C40 Khalsa and the BM AFCK.

That's my list.
 
I owned a Falkniven custom H1, with the burl handle. Best feeling knife I have ever touched. Too bad I had to send it back, due to poor fit and finish where the blade met the handle.
Of the knives I own, Bob Dozier's Pro Skinner or Bill Buxton custom.

Folders,
Kershaw boa & Carson.
