Finger choils on bushcraft knives, yes or no?

[sargey]

i'm not fussed either way, take the handle all the way up to the cutting edge and the choil is redundant....

however, they can be popular on real hunting knives like the knives of alaska stuff.

the advantage being that it gives the user control whilst keeping the handle away from the blood.

i have a few of the ESEE knives, they're all truly excellent.
