Amici,
We have seen so many threads about what's your favorite Ernie, well what about Ernie do you like least?

For me, I would have to say the CQC-15 series. I have both in full and mini, and can't get into either of them for EDC or pretty much anything else.

I even sent them back to Ernie and had partial serrations added in the hope that it might motivate me but alas, still a nogo.. Don't know why, but just don't like them.

So what's yours, is it possible or is it just me?

Cheers,
Serge
 
For me it is the CQC-8 because of the grip to blade ratio is way off. Also Super CQC-8 is the same with a HUGE length handle compared to the blade length.

I do like the Horseman however because the grip ratio is not the same compared to the CQC-8 and super 8.
 
CQC 7 in the regular size. The ergos just weren't what I was expecting from an Emerson. If it was curved in the front like it is in the back that might be different.

I do like my Protech CQC 7 which is just about the same size. Perhaps just a bit slimmer.

I'd say the 15. Good friend of mine loves em, but I just couldn't dig it for some reason.
 
Of my limited experience with them, the super 7. The handle just didn't feel right.
 
I really hate to say it because it is such a baddass looking knife, but the SOCFK is my least favorite. That handle in my hand is like a square peg in a round hole. My little guy loves it however.
 
I don't like any of the clip/bowie bladed Emersons, the 13, 12 ETAK, Patriot, etc. But then, I'm just not a fan of that blade style regardless of maker.

I gotta agree. It doesn't work on small knives or modern tactical folders. Only large fixed blades and traditional folders.
 
Funny you mention that, I was the same with my 15. Just sold it actually, used the money for a roadhouse! Also wasn't a fan of the commander in standard or super size.
 
Any micros or minis. The standard 7 is at the small end of anything I'll carry. On the flip side of the coin I hate the super 7. I love the blade but the handle is extremely uncomfortable to me.
