Any and all comments or critiques more than welcome.

Thanks for looking,

I like it.
It would definitely get a second and third look from me if I saw it at one of the shows. Then my wife would see it and want me to come back and look at it again. I can hear what she would be saying right now "If we can't afford it, that's ok, but...................I really like it"
 
Very nicely done.
Fit/finish looks top notch.
Well executed tapered tang and beautifully figured maple.
 
Thanks for the compliments. After some instruction/ feedback from a few Mastersmith's recently, Im really focusing on the fit and finish and working out the steps so that the end results come out as I plan, not just hoping they come out ok.
