Thanks for the IG link. That’s a chunky monkey right there! LOVE the aesthetic of it. I do worry that the very edge is going to be a bit sharp on the catch.

Naw, I’ve been throwing it for quite a bit and I haven’t hurt my hand at all! Tight binds are pretty nice, not too snaggy. Also, I have small hands, so bigger hands wouldn’t feel the runs as much haha 🙂
