Graham, if I'm viewing the picture correctly your knives have the handle in line with the back of the blade while Kev, your handles are in line with the centre of the blade - could I ask the reason for the difference please as in my experience this changes the nature of wielding the weapon quite a bit?

Changes the nature of wielding the weapon??? I suppose it depends on how you wield it but the position of the handle makes no difference unless it not there at all . The knives go where you put them. Wouldn't you agree? Kev has informed me that the central handle is so that you can parry using both sides of the handle. I wasn't aware of that and it hasn't posed a problem to me yet where the handle is on mine.
