The pinky finger should be at the joint to your ring finger. Mine is not. Mine is below the joint. I'm a freak of nature. LOL!
Why is this an issue you, ask?
It makes my grip on knives uncomfortable and I can't find a good EDC or Utility knife that I feel comfortable holding. And most handles on the tactical knives are too big for me to grasp. I know you're shaking your head and laughing at my dilemma but this is a serious matter to me.
I have been adapting and overcoming and saving up to have a custom made knife just for me.
I can't believe there aren't very many custom knife makers who specialize in knives for women. Think about it we have pink and purple guns *rolling eyes*. No, I don't want a cheap pink or purple knife; I just want a man's knife for a woman.
A good skinner knife for hunting, yes, I hunt and a really good EDC knife. The ZT0560 was okay, but it's a manual open knife and I prefer auto assist knives. But that's just my opinion. The jimping on the back was a little rough for me and it didn't have the serrated top. I like serrated tops for my EDC. I felt lucky that I was able to try it out thanks to a friend who owned one.
Another friend had the Emerson Super Roadhouse and it is just amazing but too long for me. I really loved this tactical knife though. Man it was sharp and he had been using it for a while. But, again, too big for my small hands and short pinky.
On of my favorite knives to carry is my Kershaw Sapphire. Love this knife for quick tasks, but I couldn't use it all the time because there's really no jimping and no grip. The handle is so smooth but it's very sharp and reliable.
I think my dream knife would be to find one like the Winkler II Utility knife. Now there is heaven. LOL! I wonder what my chances are of getting him to make me a knife? Oh maybe I should work on that, want to help me out?
So now you know, my pinky is too short, I'm a freak of nature and I really do love knives, really I do. One of my other favorites is this AG Russell that I carry around my neck every where I go.
As you can tell, I'm not loyal to one brand. I just want to find a good EDC, Utility and Tactical knife that fits these little hands of mine and accommodates a short pinky finger.
