First flipper design

[kamikazej]

Hey everyone I just wanted to show a flipper design I've been working on . I'm getting close to making a few and was just wanting to get some feedback before hand .

Specs.
3.5" cutting edge
8.5" open
4.75 closed
AEBL steel
Zirc clip and bolsters
Ti liners and hardware

Thanks in advance for any feedback

It looks like there is too much blade for the handle. I think a thinner blade would be better, and make it look more balanced. I like the overall design of the knife. I do love that you plan to build it with mosaic pins. Thank you for sharing your design with us.

Not actually mosaics it's just the details of the torx screws and pivot .
I definitely see your point on the blade size vs handle and I'll play with it a touch and see how it looks . Thanks

Here it is after some tweaking . I beefed up the handle some and thinned out the blade in touch
