Flamin' Maple belt knife

[BenR.T.]

I just finished up this simple frontier belt knife with some FANTASTIC curly maple. This stuff has tons of curl and great chatoyance.
The blade steel is L6 and the pins are carbon fiber. It has hammer textured flats and I gave it a nice antique finish as well.
It is ground nice and thin, and is shaving sharp. OAl is about 8 1/4"

Any and all comments welcome!!
Thanks for looking.
