Yikes! Haven't downed whole milk since I spent a summer working on my Cousin's farm. Strangely enough, very few jobs have provided the sense of satisfaction that that one did.

M22 - what do you mean by leveraged chopping grip? I've chopped with a lot of knives and I find the fusion handles really comfortable.
CO - she's going to tell me to pack my stuff and move in with him. As much as I like Ban, I'd like to go to bed with my girl when the days over, hahah. As tempted as I am to make a smart assed comment I shall pass. Keep her happy! If she ain't happy there ain't no way you will be happy! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />

on shorter blades you wanna grip further bad to extend the weight forward. the weiler grip is the perfect example. A good lanyard on a CGFBM of CGDF will allow you to grip the handle with only your index and middle finger. The extra leverage translates into extra bite by the blade!

this is true. i just feel a less indexed grip is more versatile.

I'm definitely going w/ black handles, but I think I'm getting two of these. Black/Black and Black/Satin if it's an option... Ok 3 if INFI LE becomes a reality...

Thanks for posting the handle colors Dan! I'm deciding between a light green handle/tan blade or a muddy handle/sage blade. I think the final decision will come when Dan posts the blade colors <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

I must say, going over the pics Dan posted, a black blade is sweet with all the handles <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />
