It is fine to say "this handle does not fit my hand" I've had expensive knives not fit my hand.
I've reshaped, heavily, micarta scales that were way too big for my hands. 2xl hands.
Some palm swells are way too big or pronounced for my hands, and never quite feel right.
One question.... in talking to the maker, did you tell him you have xl or xxl hands? He might have upsized his handle sizex and gone overboard. It is very common.
I've done it for my own hands!! Misjudged the way a handle will fit, once the scales would be on.
