Great looking user, Tod.
I noticed Ernie's comment on the handle. I tend to agree with him. The texture pattern seems to be a little helter skelter. I think if the texture had a more even pattern it would really look good. That's just my 2 cents worth though.
Your knives are getting better each time you post one. keep up the good work, someday we will be reading about you in the Knife mags.
