i love the texture and size of Dexter-Russell's Softgrip handles.
however, the 8" and 10" knives are awkward for me to hold. i can't
grab them around the bolster like i'm used to with a Henckels or
Wustof, for example. I assume this is because these knives are usually
used in commercial kitchens where safety is a higher concern than at
home. Has anyone used a Softgrip knife, or a regular Sani-safe one,
for an extended period of time? I'd primarily be chopping vegetables
with it. Do you get used to the different way of holding it?

Have never used one or even heard of one. I do have a Dexter-Russell
vegetable cleaver, which I love to death, but it has a wooden handle.
