C-pen handle shape

[Dominikk85]

Which handle shape for cpen do you prefer? There isn't much talk about penhold handle shapes other than cpen and jpen but I think there are different shapes for cpen too.

Some grips are more round,
Others are more square and others more flat and wide.

Are there advantages for each handle shape at penhold?

I found for me I prefer the round handles over the square ones but I also play rpb only on BH. Maybe for tpb that would be different.

Here are some examples what I mean

As a ex c-pen player/ i find flared better. Slightly more wrist flexibility and creativity in the game. I found out round is a bit better for RPB, just a slightly easier transition makes a world of difference.

For me the round shape is easier for rpb use since I can twist the bat so it is a little more open.

Same here - prefer round handles as a RPB only penholder, and leave a gap between rubber and handle.

I think the swedish made cpens (Yasaka, Donic, Stiga) tend to have the square handles that feel wider.
