    How does the handle feel in your hand? I like the knife, but the handle looks a bit uncomfortable.

    handle feels great. I like leaving most of the natural knobs and ridges in stag hilts. They provide tremendous tactile purchase and as long as they aren't too high or sharp, are actually quite comfortable.
