What is that one folder you own that just seems to fit your hand perfect. I'm not talking about your best cutting knife or most expensive knife or even your favorite knife to carry. I'm talking about the folder that when you grab it not only has no hot spots on your hand but just is a joy to hold. For me that knife is the Kershaw Knockout. How about everyone else?
 
Benchmade Volli fits me perfectly in any grip style I would use. At least the best I've experienced so far. I got a lot more on my shopping list to eventually try ;)
 
Without even thinking about it it's my Chinook 3. The handle is just perfect for me. If I had a custom made it probably wouldn't fit like my Chinook 3.
 
Spyderco Military for 1st place.

2nd place is a tie between my Spyderco PM2 and despite its somewhat blocky shape, my Les George VECP v3 just works for me. Its up there with my Millie.

For med/large Fixed blades my Survive! Knives 5.1 is king

For small fixed blades and neck knives I have found a few that I really like
 
I can't just name one. I own several folders that fit me well.

My top two.

In bare hands , Emerson Mini CQC 15.

With work/winter gloves, Spyderco Military.

Mr Emerson and Mr Glesser design knives with excellent ergonomics.
 
FFKW Fortis, so comfortable in the hand, all types of grips, even choking up on the blade finger choil. Archbishop not too far behind. My Mac Wasil folders fit my hands great too!
 
Kershaw Knockout
Lionsteel SR2A (not an owner... yet)
Spyderco Manix 2 LW
Cold Steel Recon 1

All of them seem to fit like a glove. Can't wait to get my hands on a Lionsteel.
 
My Grayman SATU or my Ontario Hossom...I like em big! I used to have a ZT 0200 and a 0300 and I loved those in my hand too.
 
#1 is my Emerson mini-CQC15. A close second would be my Emerson mini-Commander. Nothing else comes close to a perfect fit for me.

I'm going to have to try out that lionsteel and cold steel recon myself because my second choice would have been the manix 2 and I already said that knockout is my favorite in hand.
 
I was really surprised by the Lionsteel. I'd never paid them any attention, but a customer sent one for sharpening and I fell in love with it. The aluminum models are nicely priced too.

You can tell the Recon will be ergonomic from the pics, but it's a very large knife. Makes the Manix and the King ockout feel petite.
 
Tie between delica mora and 940.

And to complete this the worst knife i've held is a tie between griptillian and mini griptilian
