What knives have the most comfortable handles?

Benchmade's Presidio models, the larger 520 and it's little brother the 525, both lock into your grip when you hold them, I'd suggest removing the clips on the knife though, as then it really conforms to your grip nicely.
Each knife has grooves angled in towards the middle of the handle
plus contours on the guard and butt all add to a great, not only confortable but a feeling of confidence in use type of grip.

I recently acquired a TAD Gear/ Strider RG GB; and the way they textured the G-10, makes it one of, if not THE most comfortable handle scales ever, for me.
 
The most comfortable one I own is a FB by Kit Carson, SD1. The most comfortable I've used was a Rob Simonich custom fixed blade I forget what the name of it was. I've had alot of knives that felt great in the hand but the real test of comfort is useing them for a good amount of time.

:thumbup: I second that, i've never found another folder that fits my hands so well.
 
Any micarta handle as I can sand it down to a 100% perfectly formed custom grip. ;)

The RespC SRKW grips are nice as well.

my pet pieve is a clumsey handle so I had to jump in on this thread. I dont have many factory knives but the most comfortable handle I have is this green micarta'd one in the center. Just feels damn good! Its my favorite this week :D

For me, the most comfortable handles on FB knives are Newt Livesay's knives. For folders, I like Spyderco, especially the Calypso, Calypso Jr., and the Temperance FB, which is not a folder, I know.
 
Just remember:
For a fixed blade, the best handle is the Spyderco Temperance. :thumbup:

Nozh, that handle design is superb - worth a long topic in itself.
