America has mostly knobs. I noticed this when I lived in Germany and England. It's not just Scandinavia that has predominantly handles.

While handles are physically easier to operate, I think they look darned ugly compared to the aesthetic beauty of a nice shiny golden doorknob on wooden paneling. In this one case, I break tradition with both typical guyhood AND typical engineerhood and prefer knobs.
