The Misono are very different from one series to another. The UX-10 a bit boxy, the Swedish Carbon nicely rounded, the 440 in between, all very comfortable thanks to the Fit&Finish.I like this handle alot compared to misono or tojiro westerns..
I like the way it's tapered to hit the palm and fingers.
I don't really fancy those "boxy" kind of western handle, round handle feels more comfortable for my hand for long usage
We should get together and compare notes. I am very curious... maybe we need to get a Boston meetup going.My preference with xl hands is for the bigger dimension to be the height of the handle rather than the width. I use that height dimension to judge verticality and give me control to resist twisting. I've tried it several ways and one of my favorite prtotypes is a long tall skinny oval. If the knife gets too much width, like too close to a circle then I feel like I lose some proprioception/fine motor control at full speed.
What do you all think?
there is a thread detailing this alot better than my summary somewhere, it was an interesting discussion
probably not doing it justice with this summary.
does anyone else feel that the western handle on Zwilling Kramer chefs is way too thick? I am a big guy (6' 1") and it just felt huge. really wanted to like it but just couldn't...
