Rubbery and almost soft (depresses very slightly). It feels like a rubber grip but is far more resistant to wear and tear.
+1. Warms up reasonably well in the hand, too. Both the INFICoot (small, tan) and the Basic 9 (black, last knife in my post) have Res-C handles. Although not very 'styling,' the Res-C handle helps make that Basic 9 an extremely good and amazingly comfortable chopping machine.
The pattern on the Hairy Carry slabs is just deep enough to provide a secure grip without being annoying or abrasive in the hand. The Hairy Carry is another of those under-rated knives wandering quietly about the world, doing their jobs.
