Finished this last night, i have had this knife on the desk for a while now waiting for someone big.

This knife is 0-1 steel cocobolo wood handle The guy that get it is big we put our hands together and my hand looks like a 12 year olds hand in his, he is
6-11" " with 8 years of boxing I still think I can woop him but sure would hate to get by them hammers he calls hands" "LOL" he works in the prisons here in San Diego .so the handle is big 5 1/2" long also the blade is 5 1/2 " long, its 1/4 thick ,and a side note I'm not doing well today I broke out in red splotches can breath good and itch like hell ,my face is swollen and have turned real red on the upper body last night was bad I took some Benadril pills and put cream"benadril" one me It helped with the itching but not all the way . I guess me and cocobolo don't get along ,I have used it before without having this happen to me if it don't get better by tonight I'll have to go to the sawbones to get help so please tell me what you think of my knife The guys gonna use it for camping ,chopping ,heavy work knife

I think there's a little too much texture for comfortable long term use.

The overall design looks pretty good, but there are too many notches, grooves and too much filework for my taste. I really like the shape of the blade, though.

wow, man I guess you got to be careful. I hear that, and can imagine why, G10 and micarta type materials can be extremely bad for you especially in fine dust form.
