Here are a couple i just finished up. They both have 52100 blades with hand rubbed finishes one has a brass guard and pin with a cocobolo handle and the other one has a 416 guard and spacer sith ss pin and a koa handle. Let me knwo what ya'll think.

I like them both, especially the one with the spacer, gives it a real clean look. What is the overall length?
 
That is beautiful work, Fiskesque, but affordable.
I don't know why it has become popular to make the choil so short. There's not enough room to put the forefinger there to choke up, but there is enough room there for the blade to hang up dressing an animal. Your work is first rate though, everybody should have at least one.
 
Both are beautiful, clean looking knives. I like the Koa one best. Not just because of the wood but also the way the guard goes with the blade. Awesome knives!
 
thanks everyone. sorry about my photo skills the handles look flat but they are not i am not haveing much luck figureing out how to show these off better. any ideas?
 
For a straight hunter, I like the curley koa best. It has a little more belly and I like the rounded choil. Either one looks field ready. Nice work.

Wonderful work. For me, the koa one has the nicest lines and blade shape (I also prefer the stainless guard).
