I think it looks kind of cool. Also, changing the shape of the knife scale might alter the minimalist and elegant lines of the knife when open. Few folding knives are as beautiful when open as a Sebenza. Most of them look out of proportion (to my eye) in some way. But 3 design elements on the newer CRK folders that do bug me are the double sided scale screws, the Idaho Made engraving and the perforated washers (invisible, but I much prefer the feel of the solid washers) . Below is my 21 from 2009, before those "improvements" were added.
Agree on double sided screws, neutral on Idaho Made (but I do like the clean look of yours) disagree slightly on perforated washers (I think they work great).
But oh the thumb serrations…I could have a whole thread on which ones I like best and why
