How are the ergos? Nick Shabazz said the knife was full of hot spots, but I'm not sure that others share his view on this one.

JSG1I find the ergos are great. Looking at it, you'd expect many hotspots, but I haven't found that to be the case. But I'd imagine this depends on the hand

BknguyenThanks, man. I was/am worried about two hot spots : the clip (and in particular, the very end of it), and the place on the frame where there's an abrupt change of width. For this latter one, I would think that if you don't get your fingers on either side of that spot, it will dig into whichever finger is wrapped around it.

JSG1I think you're talking about the choil, the area where the handle is thinner. The choil is actually meant to improve the ergos. It isn't meant to have a finger right on the edge of the choil, but rather as a comfortable nook for your index or both your index and middle to sit in, depending on the task at hand

JSG1I got it a few days ago and it is an amazing knife for the price, but I do have a bit of a problem with the ergonomics. Particularly the end of the handle is very pointy, the tip of the clip is for sure a hotspot. Also the finger choil at the root of the blade is ripe with index cuts. All that being said even at 250 it’s an amazing knife but if you got it at 175... it’s beyond worth it. And production quality is better than any of my other knives
