Why is the Wenger handle completely radius but the Milatary and Starmate is not?

Hello all,

I was just wondering this when I went to a local knife store and played around with these knives. I notice that on the Wenger model the G-10 handle slabs were completely radius ( all rounded) but the Military and Starmate was not. It was like the edges were cut not rounded. I am not sure if I can explained how they did the handles of the Military and Starmate. But to me I much prefer the Wenger with its rounded G-10 handle.

Liong - The Wegner handle is hand finished to a radius. This was part of the design requirements. The Military and Starmate are chamfered with a C&C, under water.
