Metal scales... yeah, that sounds comfortable. NOT. no texture, slippery when wet, etc etc.

Its a great EDC knife, for me I have to remind my self handle is a little slippery, but I have not had no problems.

It's actually pretty grippy. I've never had an issue when using it in the rain. The paint has a rough texture to it. I've never had to use it with blood on it, from skinning game. But I don't believe it would be an issue. It always helps to remind your hands your holding a knife. I've never dropped one due to use when remembering this fact. Thanks for reading I hope this was helpful.

Actually, they are quite nice. There is enough texture to get a great grip on it. The metal is VERY comfortable. I have other Benchmades with G10 and other non-metal that are absolutely horrible to hold, and hurt your hand.

I'm never a fan of 1-10 scales, but if you want gloves for warmth these are not them. If you are in a climate where it's in the 30's Fahrenheit or below, you'll feel like you're not even wearing gloves.

Not really, but metal is harder than plastic, so as long as you keep felts between each cymbal, no padding is really necessary.

it is definitely not plastic. It feels like a stiff recylce material. I did not care for them.

It's definitely not smooth. Almost don't like the feel, but it works well for grinding.

If your frame is made of thick plastic, it is not comfortable at all. I have no clue what it feels like with a metal frame.

I just got mine and it does not feel metal at all. My soap dispenser in the kitchen makes a metal clink if you flick it with your finger nail. This one makes a plastic click. If it is metal, it's the thinnest metal I have ever seen.

Looks and feels like soft (thin?) metal. Has some give to it like plastic might have.

Those are not heavy at all, the only problem is walking around with them; furthermore, they are not comfortable either.

It feels like hard plastic with a textured surface. It is not soft like rubber, but it isn't smooth like most hard plastics. It has a frosted semi-see through appearance rather than a smooth glossy finish.

Nope- its some form of plastic- that said, its comfortable, and fairly nice to a grip on.

I do not have that problem. It is not stiff, but definitely not jiggly. You may want to return.

I tried everything! You will need a lot of patience. After two years mine still has bumps. If it hasn't been so heavy & awkward I would have returned it after the first week!

It is different. Because it is plastic it has a "plastic" taste to it, and for me one of the wholes doesn't play to full strength. For the money(if you were considering buying the set) it's worth it. But the metal one is overall better.

no, it won´t sound but it will feel almost like a can of liquid. It is heavy like if it were filled with liquid but no splashy liquid movement obviously. If you put coins or a key and shake it, it will sound rattly, but you can wrap it in bubbly plastic and problem solved. It´s worth it, i feel.

Totally agree. It was uncomfortable and awkward. Don't recommend it for weight exercise.

Actually, it's neither. It's more of a roll-on sticky film. It's not rubbery in texture, nor is it hard.
