Why Handle Material Matters

The handle is your interface with the knife. It affects grip comfort, balance, temperature feel, and durability under stress. A textured G10 or warm Micarta may be ideal for heavy use in the field, while lightweight Aluminum or Carbon Fiber might appeal for fast-carry EDCs. Titanium handles deliver a premium feel with strength and aesthetics, but at a higher price point.
