Very pretty, but it bothers me that the top and bottom guard aren't the same length

Lovely, asymmetry of guard ends looks good to me...

Can't type my thoughts for droolin' on the keyboard.

I really like that one. The assymatry in the guard I like. Never been a big fan of tall guards on the top of a knife.

Looks great.

I like the black and steel bands on the back of the guard. The guard is perfect. Would love to see a photo thread on how you made it.

Great looking knife. You did a fantastic job shaping and finishing the handle as well. Lets see more photos of more of your knives.
