Wave technique help

[See2]

Hey guys - do any of you have to choke up on the handle of your "waved" knives after opening them? I curl my index finger under the bottom of the pocket clip (just like Don taught me to)

, and draw it that way, but I'm finding that doing that leaves my hand too far down on the handle, and I have to release my grip on the knife for a quick second to get it sitting right. Am I doing something wrong?

Nope, you got it right. You can slash from that position, but for better control and strength, you shift your grip slightly.
