A super clean little knife. Could you supply dimensions? Like to know just how little.
Cocobolo is right among the top on my list of favorite handle materials. The well executed dove-tailed bolsters and red liner add a touch of elegance, but leaves me wondering why you didn't taper the tang?
This piece has one of those handle profiles that really makes one want to grasp it.
Nice work Art.

OAL is 7 1/2 ATS34 blade, to the plung is 3", from bird head to guard is 3 5/8. I didn't taper the tang because these are the first knives that I'v ground from scratch in 7 years and was in a hurry to get some heat treated. The next 18 that I have ready for heat treat all have tapered tangs.
Thanks , Art
