Actually have my M9 wrapped with a Fairway (made in England) Leather tennis racquet grip. Works awesome and builds the handle up a bit as well.

I use exact same as Capt. Chris.....for years. And mainly because won a couple fair size racquetball tourneys using it & similar....a few decades ago. Will not slip in your hand & the more you use it, the better it feels. Just like the knife.

Sorry Tom. Mine is on loan to my baby brother....4 days into a 20 day Woods Walk. Living in his pack as his "camp-really-need-a-big-knife" knife. I was supposed to be on this long ago, planned outing with him & two others, BUT, all our plans don't always work out.
SO, these pics. are a sorry substitute. The exact same wrap I put on my racquet approx. 1985, has been well-worn, still a little tacky, little cushion-née and I really like the feel on my #18. Everybody's taste is different.
When he's back I'll post the knife.....unless Capt. Chris gets around to it 1st.
