I was just wondering if the Navigator should be my next purchase. I'm a big guy, 5'11" and 210 lbs., and was wondering if the Navigator would fit in my hand, or if it would feel awkward. I want this knife because I need a dress knife that won't break my checkbook. Any suggestions or ideas? Will it be awkward to hold? Thanks.

Turbo, I order the Almite Navigator some months ago. I love the handle, and the ergonomics are great (I am 5'10" 210 lbs.), but I sent it back and got a SS Dragonfly because I preferred the flat ground blade. IMO, the ergonomic differences between these two are very minor.

I went ahead and had a local artist do some engraving on the SS scale.

I have both the Navigator G-10 and the SS Dragonfly. I love them both but, IMHO the Navigator has better ergonomics, it fills the hand more than the Dragonfly. I also think that the Navigator appears less threatening due to blade shape.
The almite and stainless steel are both classy handle materials.
