You didn’t mention anything about ergonomics, it doesn’t look like it fits your hand very well. It’s also really ugly over all, I know an out the front knife needs to be boxy but this one is plain fuggly.

I have never been concerned about ergonomics with anything other than keyboards and office chairs. I never thought about how the knife fits in my hand while making the video so I am holding it now and feels very natural to me. I can’t comment on the “fugliness” of the knife since that just boils down to personal taste and everyone is different. I like this knife though.

I think ergonomics is pretty important. Does the knife feel comfortable in your hand, are there any sharp corners on the handle or any chance your hand might slip onto the blade. Is the handle material hard or soft? Does your hand slip when it’s dry or wet? It might not have ever concerned you on a knife but I think it’s just as important as it is with a keyboard.

Gotchya.
Well. There is a lot of grip tape and my hand never felt like it was going to slip off. There were also no sharp edges; all corners were nicely smoothed out.
The handle material feels nice and smooth but the grip tape is extremely rough. To move your hand over the grip tape for extended periods of time will definitely lead to a rash.
The grip tape prevents slipping whether dry or wet.
My next knife video will include all these concerns.
