Bradford Knives Guardian 3 3D Black Micarta

I really want to like this design and I sort of do ... but it was about a quarter inch too short for my hand so my forefinger (it’s not a particularly fat forefinger, either) would have spilled over onto the sharpened edge in regular use. For a utilitarian knife there needs to be a bit more separation between finger area and working blade. Bradford perhaps needs a Guardian 3.25 with the extra .25 going into the handle? The lanyard cutout in the butt end is a great idea but leaves hard edges for your palm to grind into— a hollow rivet might be better. I much appreciate, though, NO sharpening choil. I hate those. I hated the leather sheath for this one—first time I jammed the knife back in, it popped through the bottom seam and poked a tiny hole in my palm. I sent it back, Lamnia of course thoroughly professional about a refund.
