LOK Checkered Diamond vs VZ Tactical Diamond

[Insert]

I want to have more aggressive grips for my CZ P-01 Omega and the LOK grenades, while a good middle ground, are not aggressive enough for me (and I'm bored of them lol). I think the diamond pattern that both these companies offer both seem grippy and look great. Which is better from your experience? Also a side note, is the VZ grips truly black? My LOKs were a little on the pale side and I kind of like an actual black on black look.

I have the Palm Swell Bogies on one of my P-01's. They are definitely aggressive enough. I really like them.

I have VZ "Diamondbacks" in black on an all stainless DW, PM-9. Love the aggressive texture and they are coal black in color and they are not flat black.

I didn't like the cocobolo grips on my 75B so I ordered VZ tactical diamonds. They lack any palm swell, so they were grippier but no longer gave me that awesome CZ fit, and my accuracy suffered. The LOK palm swell diamonds are a much better fit for me than the flat VZ's.

I think the palm swells are probably objectively better for shooting/accuracy but I personally like the flatter grips since I carry this gun IWB.

VZ makes a great palm swell also. Have them in Diamondback on an SP-01 Shadow Orange. Great feel and grippiness!
