The handle is a classy design of carbon fiber. The part I like most about this new design is the curve at the end of the butt, which cradles your little finger. The effect is that it feels more secure in your hand, like it's not going to slip out forward, and has the potential to give you more control (no one has cut with these knives). Great looking and feeling knife!

“If you're not familiar with Bohler M390 steel, be sure to read my blog article on this amazing Austrian steel. When I received my first M390 samples 18 months ago, my wife quickly decided that our new Santoku and utility knife were going to be her first go-to knives. She's not a knife buff, but she does know what looks, feels, and cuts beautifully.” -- Rob The Bamboo Guy
