Is the handle hollow for putting items in like the other Schrade SCHF models?

Yes, hollow but pretty narrow. You could get some tinder and maybe a very small striker in it.

They are solid. They are one-piece handles, flatter and much heavier than the two-piece hollow handles. (Unfortunately, because of their extra weight, I find them easier to drop. I prefer the hollow handles on my original set, vintage 1986. Oh well...)

Welp, I can't say for sure but I imagine the handle is hollow. Take the answers of the other guys commenting. The butt end of the knife has a clip to attach to an AR barrel. The knife is likely hollow but there is no open end to it.

The handle is round, about a quarter inch in diameter. It's closed at the top so I cannot tell if it's solid or hollow, but it feels both solid and light. It's been great so far. Hope that helps.

The handle is hollow. I believe it is aluminum coated in rubber. I am traveling now and the knife is at home so I can not verify it.

I am not sure..but the one I received--the handles are solid...and I love it...

It's hollow, they're pretty much always hollow. It is a thick-gauge steel though, so no worries, it should handle a reasonable weight...

Yes. You just push the top two handles together. It's very light when empty if you need to pick it up.

Yes, it has a flat bottom. I've never had to use a potholder for the handle - but it can get warm/hot when you pour water out because of the steam. Handle itself has never been hot to the touch.

The product I received has a hollow plastic handle and feels like you could crush it in your hand. I don't think I received the same product others are saying is durable.

Based on the weight, it's hollow. The plastic seal on the gasket works pretty well - you just have to keep it clean.

It is certainly NOT a steel tubular handle. Mine is some type of wood handle painted gray.

It has about a one inch opening on the bottom base. Don't know if it is hollow.

The one I got has a wooden handle. Fairly sturdy, still going well after three years of steady-to-heavy use in a professional setting.

handle is neatly welded on both sides...I have been using this sieve and it works admirably even with hottest pasta. I love it

Hollow, definitely. I can't believe anyone said otherwise, unless the manufacturer ships different versions.

The one I ordered was, indeed, hollow, and stuff does get trapped in it when I run it through the dishwasher or wash it any way but alone. You could maybe clean it effectively with a pipe cleaner, but it's very, very frustrating. Maybe the one I received was a knockoff or something, but I did order it through this listing.
