Knife #2 just needs sharpening

Here are some pics of knife #2 and my 2nd lanyard as well.
I changed my design from knife #1 because it felt too short in my big hands.
The wife says #1 fits her hand just fine and told me that since I didn't like it, it was hers. :)

The blade is O1, edge quenched with oven draw back @ 400* for 1 hr.
(not sure if you can make it out in the pics but I tapered the tang a bit)
Scales are black and green micarta with palm swell, Brass liners, Loveless bolts,1/4" brass tube for lanyard hole, green and black 550 paracord lanyard

Sorry, I hit the "submit" button instead of the "preview" button...:34:
They should be up now.
 
Thanks for the kind words guys.
Rodney, its an accelerated rusting process that my mentor and I have been tinkering
with trying to get the right blend of chemicals.
The goldish color on the blade is just heat color from the oven draw back.

I like that look what kind of finish did you do on the blade?
