I absolutely love this bar. Knurling is grippy but never feels like it's tearing up my hands. The stainless looks great, and the chrome sleeves have held up really well. I use this for basically every lift including deadlifts when not in LHLE meat prep. I've used power bars from rogue, texas, eleiko, hansu, and the strength co. The knurling on the Texas power bar is definitely more aggressive, but there's not a single bar I would choose over this one as a daily driver
