Finally - my first custom! What do you think of it?

Really surprized that no one spoke of the lack of rounding on the handle, do you all really enjoy sharp square edges on the handles of your knives?
 
It is often times hard to tell how sharp the edges are from pictures. As long as there isn't a bur, it can look like it has sharp edges but it may feel quite a bit smoother than you expect. Also, if you look at the second picture, you can see that the edges of the handle, at least where your hand is in contact, are indeed smoothed out.

A late reply as I was on a trip.
As Brutus013 remarked, there is a subtle smoothing on the edges of the handle, so it's comfortable in the hand.

I am still very happy with it!

ps 1 here is a picture of it closed:

That is NICE!!!:thumbup::thumbup:

Congratulations on your 1st custom!!;):)
 
It looks like a nice little knife. And I don't think it needs to be bigger. It is not like you are going to be using it for killing bears, or fending off sword-wielding ninjas. An EDC should be big enough to cut things and small enough to fit in your pocket and not get in the way. I personally prefer anything I am carrying around to have that "melted" look around the edges of the handle. But to each, their own. And you still have not answered that burning question. How much was it?

Not sure how I feel about the clip or those big thumbstuds, but I love the blade, the frame lock, and the grippy looking G-10 scale.
That's a good-looking knife:thumbup:
