I think the SOD hand is huge. Wouldn't mind it just a tad thinner, however, comfy enough. Then again I have this mindset that I've sort of learned over the years. A handle that feels super comfy holding it, like when you grab a knife off a customer makers table and admire it, isn't necessarily comfy at all when using it in the field.

My user feeling tends towards smaller handles, even though the bigger handles feel nicer when I pick them up and just hold them.
