A paracord wrapped handle on a game knife would have never crossed my mind. Is it even remotely sanitary to have that? Fat, blood etc. Sort of on the same line of why I prefer a fixed blade over a folder, less crevices. I just see nasty written all over a paracord handle.

My favorite knife is a Puma Skinner, but I also have a nice custom that's built somewhat on a Puma Hunters Pal pattern with giraffe bone scales. You'd think the giraffe bone could become slippery, but it doesn't.
