[QUOTE="ez bake, post: 2603206, member: 229"] Using a knife (especially a fixed-blade, and more specifically, a bushcrafting fixed-blade) is a lot different than using a gun. Most bushcrafting knives have semi-smooth handles because any sort of texture will quickly become very uncomfortable without gloves. If you do mod the scales, then be prepared to use gloves everytime you need to use the knife hard for a long period of time otherwise you might end up with blisters/torn-up hands. My advice is to go try it out first and see what you think of it with the factory scales and then mod it if you feel it needs it. Another mod a lot of folks go with is a lanyard to prevent it from slipping out (but IMO, the BK10 isn't really long enough to be a big-time chopper, so I doubt you get to swinging it around as much as something longer / more suited for chopping). Nice knife and whatever you decide, go use it like it deserves to be used. [/QUOTE]
