i like this knife very much! the blade design looks comfortable and effective! the one thing i might suggest (as was suggested to me on one of my knives) is to orient the pins so they line up or match. beautiful hamon!
 
Great job Bill, you've turned the page on a new chapter. Your first hamon knife and it's really outstanding. What are gonna do when you get good at this stuff huh???
