Just a few key points when choosing your barbell (for knurl):

Everyone has their preference. What I prefer you may not!

Knurl can actually matter – if you are doing oly lifts you really want a mild knurl. Pulling you want a grippy knurl. That can affect your performance!

My personal preference for knurl on a power bar is a high TPI and mountain. So like a 25TPI with Mountain would be my perfect knurl. Very few bars actually have this.
