Modern Knife Handle Trends
I am noticing that just about all the new products coming out have handles made of more modern type materials. Titanium, Carbon Fiber, G-10, Micarta. All these materials do very little for the actual function of a knife. Folding or One-Piece. Just raises the price tag. I know; lighter weight, texture for grip, strength, water & corrosion resistance. But where is the Woods? Stag? Nothing old school except traditional slip joint pocketknives.
What are your thoughts on these handle materials, and what do you prefer to see more of and why?
