Which type of handle do you prefer?

I couldn't find a thread about this topic via search.

So, as the Topic says:
Which type of handle do you prefer?

Me:
Meanwhile I prefer conical handles. Not many manufacturers do produce them, so they are not wide spreaded (recently Stiga released it again). But thankfully I play a Palatinus blade who offers the ELcon handle. Before I liked straight handles most.


I know that not all handles of the prefered form fits anyone. Some manufacturers are making very comfortable handles for someone, others are not so good.  Some companies make different handles for their blades (Butterfly), some always have the same shape (Stiga). I didn't like handles that are too thin, I like it a little thicker. For example, I heard that some of Nittaku flared handles are thinner than straight ones. Please share your experience with the different handles of the manufacturers.


P.S.:  I hope I didn' forget one in the poll.

I usually prefer ST handles until I found the FL on the Donic Epox blades. Soooo devine feeling FL. Fits your hand like no other. I dislike small or thin handles, don't know why so many manufacturers continue to make them. I have small hands and it's a burden to find a great blade only to find the handle is to small.

Forget grip tape or leather, wood feels best. Standard size for most flared grips should start at 100x26 and up. Even the Stiga Legend grip feels a bit small compared to the old Alser grip. Thin grips cause hand fatigue for long playing sessions unless a person who has very small hands such as women or children. As I stated before I do have small hands but the handle deminsions offered on many blades are a joke.

I never thought of it much or really cared.  I do like the ST handles on my Samsonov Alphas bat that is because they are long.  If I twiddled I would like to have round straight handles.

My saga with blade handles continues, I have the most trouble with Butterfly handles none of them are realy great handles except the Primorac .

Which blade do you use, i am looking for a good Straight - square handle but most of the straight handles are too round.

I played with anatomic handles for years, then i recently switched to the Donic Burn Flared handle. It's vevy comfortable.

I like ST.  I also like Xiom wide and square ST handles.

i used flared handles for a long time (gergely for 14 years), now im using primo carbon and YEO straight, i like it its comfortable for me.    

I'd personally prefer Flared handle.

Actually, there are two kinds of JPen handles:

Donic right hand left hand... 

ST for me.

I vote for ST handle

Which only testifies to the fact that ppl with predisposition to ST handles are more educated and have more free time they can waste on forums.
