#28 with grips might work, kinda like some of the first DPH.

only required "option" on a 16 would be a double hilt, and it looks "right". Maybe a #1 shouldn't be a full tang knife. For me the two don't go together. That is why other models with full tangs were offered.

Just my .02.


Joe,

To me, the 14 grips are really functional. More "purchase" on the grip. I don't see any problem inverted either. Not discounting BPH, however this is my pack carry. It works for me, comfortable, no issues, and 1st choice.
