Really the grooves help you place your fingers when manipulating it. Helps with grip too. I like them. As for the bite to safe handles, there is the pocket clip and the bite handle on these are a little more curved since it is where your finger grip is on the hanlde when using it for cutting tasks. Hope that makes since. If you look at the open and in the hand pics you can see that the bite handle has more curve to it. All this makes it easier to tell what handle you have in your hand. I had trouble with my 47 as well. Loved my 32 and will get another sometime.
