      Fair enough. I hate those kinds of handles with a passion and am curious how it was manufactured but if it works, it works.

          I don’t mind riveted construction. My issue is that the style of grip is very specific to a single hand shape because of how broad it is from top to bottom. So lifting your palm up for the pinch grip greatly weakens the grip on the bottom (or top) of the handle for most hand shapes.

          Optimally? I am a huge fan of round handles since those fit a much wider range of hands. But I also find the victorinox rough polymer grips on their knives get a good chunk of the way towards at least making it feel like you have a solid grip at every point of contact.
