Here is my third.
Specs:
OAL: 7"
Steel :1/8" 1084 with a hand rubbed oil finish to 600 grit.
Handle: Corby bolted Kingwood sanded to 1200 grit with a simple Ren Wax finish. Red liners.
Sheath: Carbon Fiber patterned Holstex, set up for small Tek Lok.

This knife is darn near flawless except for a pesky low spot near the plunge on the right side. You can see it a bit in one of the pictures. I might try reworking that area a bit if it continues to bug me, but overall, I'm happy with this blade. This is my first natural handled blade and I really like the richness and lines of the Kingwood. I bought some more for future blades.

Any comments are welcome.

Job well done. The only odd thing is the knife looks distorted from the photo. I don't know if it just how it shows on my screen but it's difficult to see the actual proportions. Besides that, you have done a fine job for a third knife. I am working in mine currently.
 
Well I'm using an iPhone and it was late in the day so the shadows were kind of long and annoying. Certainly not the best pics ever. Thanks for the compliments.
