Unique and original. I love your bolster design. What a cool twist. :D

How about a close up of those bolsters.
 
Wow! I like the pattern on the carbon fiber. Gives is a traditional Japanese wrap look, but using modern CF. The parts of this knife really flow together well.:thumbup:
 
You should make a sheath out of CF, in the Japanese hard saya style, to match or complement the handle. Make it fit into the the shape of the front of the bolster. That would be hard to resist.
