Lil Temp and Military both feel great in the hand. I am not sure if my Yojimbo fits my hand or if my hand has learned to fit it, but I find it very comfortable to use as well.

CentoIII, ATR, Stretch all perfect.. Endura.. and D4.. Perfect.. the Native is a little weird to me because you hold part of the blade. Harpy is a little small but the Crossbill was custom made for me. :cool:

Millie, and Caly3 (somewhat different grip though).

The Temp was also good in the hand, but not in the pocket :D

Folder, Gunting; Fixed, Ronin. The Temperence fixed gets an honorable mention. Needless to say, I have not been buying many new Spyderco products lately, but do check various sources for NOS and pre-owned. I just scored my fourth Ronin yesterday on Ebay; I had bought three when they were still in production.

The Yojimbo probably had the best fit for my grip of any Spyder I ever owned, it just locked in so securely. Of the knives I still have, I'd say the Persian and the D4 are tops.

CF Military w/BG-42 feels perfect in my hand.

Full sized Manix feels pretty good too.

For me it's the Lil Temp. But that Yojimbo is vying for consideration.

With so many Yojimbo votes, perhaps we should start a call for a fixed-blade Yojimbo? :) While the Ronin could be considered as such, one of the complaints I heard about the Ronin was the small size and shape of the handle, which seems to have been remedied with the Yojimbo. If an FB Yojimbo is offered, I will take at least four of them. :)
