imo.. sharpened swedges are pretty specialized for fighters and such.

However.. my hands are medium so the DF handle fits me fine.. but i'm a little surprised more Large-handed folks haven't said anything about the handle. iirc only a couple folks have said DF's handle is a bit on the narrow side..
