Finished Up My First Knife... Finally!

[Prophet118]

I hope this is the right place to post this.

After about a year, I finally got around to finishing my first custom knife;
(with a lot of help in the beginning from my buddy and teacher Charlie Edmondson).

Overall length: 9"
Blade length: 4.5"
Handle length (you guessed it): 4.5"
Handle material: Dark brown canvas Micarta
Steel: 3/16" 1095 Carbon, Rc 56-58

Blade bevel is flat close to the spine and about
half way down it starts to convex to nearly zero
at the edge and has a very minor twenty degree edge bevel.
Finish is hand sanded with 600 grit, gun blued and buffed out.

Let me know what you guys think.

Reminds me of an Ontario.

I really like the blade to handle ratio.. Grip color is really nice too!
