I’d be more then happy to help with your question. It’s a G10 cover/grip and other then be translucent it’s no different then any other G10. The differences between different knives with G10 handles is the texture they machine on it and the shape of the covers themself. Contouring on the edges and how it fits in your particular hand makes a big difference. The Shaman feels very secure when in hand and the covers have very nice contours to avoid any hot spots in your hands when gripping tight. Spyderco did a fine job with the Shaman and it’s Very comfortable in hand.To TheFactor, I would be grateful for a report on that knife's handgrips. I have never handled one with those "frosted translucent" style grips. Do they offer comfort and a 'sure' grip, or do you feel they are simply made to enhance popular, pricey folders?
I have pondered doing this myself (putting a maxamet blade in a LW body), but the action on it right now with the regular grey scales is just too great to bring myself to take it apart. Best action on any compression lock I own.Maintenance time
