Thanks, Kevin. Good pics. I see you used cross lighting which shows depth better than front lighting.

Appears that the Weber and Kronos are similar in knurling depth whereas the Atlas is spiral and less deep. Is that your feeling, too? If so, the Kronos is about the same length as the handle on the Feather AS-D2 and that is fine by me. I think you've just sold me in the Kronos!

The Weber handle has really good knurling.

To the point if you put the knurling against your skin and pull back you can really feel it scrape your skin.

I like deep knurling but there are other shapes that seem to work well such as the raised pattern on an old GEM 1912 for example.

But a slippery handle can be easily overcome.
I do not like the feel of alum on my face but if I spend a second rubbing a block with my wet fingers it stops the sliding on slippery handles.

I'm doing the alum thing now, Mickey, as an added precaution. Works well!
