It's gorgeous! The blade is amazing and the handles as well, love the interesting and cool patterns on it. Excellent work!
 
Your work always seems to be excellent. I like the slight curve to the handle and bet it feels really good in the hand. The two parts of the handle blend go together very well. Are both parts wood? Wood and horn? Great photos as well.
 
Little curious...

Would you say Elmax would be good in say, a small and light Chinese cleaver for a "non-knife" user? You know, the kind who frequently abuses their knives, but not in a hardcore fashion?

Examples would be chopping chicken bone, letting the knife air dry, and steeling the knife before every use(not necessary IMO unless it gets dull).

I hear Elmax is tough enough to be bent 90 degrees without breaking, though I never caught what the hardness of that blade was.
