Robert - clean and well executed. Heck of a knife for the money. The full flat grind slices so well.
 
Lovely knife, the aesthetic is great.

Are the pics prior to final sharpening or is the secondary bevel very small? :)
 
Thanks! Yes, the pics are before sharpening. I will sharpen to buyers request down to 17 DPS.

I don't want to clog up your thread but seeing the handle I just have to ask you to look up "Starry Night" by Van Gogh. You'll see why.
Amazing work!

Thank you! When I cut the piece of Buckeye Burl for scales and looked at the rough surfaces I thought the eyes would look nice with natural micarta but was pleasantly surprised at just how matched they came out in finishing.
