I find the D-handle quite comfortable.

Beauty of buying from a proper Japanese knife shop is they handle them on site so you can just request a larger handle. Or just buy a western handled japanese knife to start with.

Also a knife thicker at the spine will be more comfortable in a pinch grip for someone with big hands. Plenty of those available in japanese knives too.
