As some handle plates are not very thick, depending on the model of knife chosen there will be a G10 composite resin interlayer between the knife and the handle to add thickness and ensure a good grip.
The spacer will be black for carbon or the color of the chosen handle, otherwise you have the option of choosing a different color from your handle to add style to your knife!
Knives that will have a spacer for the majority of handles:
- Chef's knife
- Santoku
- Tactical / hunting / leisure knives
For other knives there is also the possibility of choosing an interlayer.
