They come in many different patterns, large and small. I think they give a better grip when using the knife not to mention it makes the knife more attractive.

If you have any post them up! 8)

I love swell center, balloon end, whatever you want to call them. My favorite swell center is the Case 67 pattern.

Dimitri, you can delete this post if you feel it doesn't fit this topic or thread. But.....
since a dagger can be considered a type of knife, and since the only criteria for this topic
or thread is "Vintage Swell Center", how about a couple of Vintage, Swell Center daggers.
