What is the size of the handles (grips) on the Bandicoots and Howling Rats? Are they the same size as the larger knives? The reason I'm asking is that the Basic 3 and Basic 5 handles were smaller then the basic 7 and 9.
 
Yes they are smaller than the Camp tramp handles.
by my rough estimates it is 4 3/8 inches long and 3/4 inch wide.
Someone else may be albe to give exacting measurements

Here's a couple simple pics to help compare handles
