Anyone have any experience with the stainless steel handle model?

Thanks for all the feedback and thoughts thus far!!
The FRN handles have steel liners. The Ladybug, the small one with the sub-2" blade, does not have steel liners, FYI.

The clips are black on all the ones I've seen. If you're going by the ones in my picture, the finish is just really worn. Someday I'll get some new clips. One neat thing about the Kahr models is that the handles have matching colored clips, which you can choose based on the pants you wear. For example, they have a blue model with a blue pocket clip if you wear blue jeans to help keep it low profile.

My concern with the stainless steel handles is traction. For that reason I've never gotten a steel handled one. The FRN handles on my Delicas give me a good, secure grip.

Edit: I misread your post. I didn't realize you were talking about the stainless steel clips on the stainless steel handled models.
