In general I prefer the texture/tackiness of G10 scales over FRN.....but the latest Byrds (Caracara,Meadowlark) have changed my thinking.....the new FRN versions have better traction and palm-purchase over their G10 brothers....lots of "jimping" on the FRN spine (like the Jester, E4, D4) which I like! :D Also, the G10 scales on the Byrds for some reason don't feel as "tacky" as the ones on my Spyderco clipits (e.g. Paramilitary).....as if the texturing of the G10 is not "coarse" enough...... :rolleyes:
