19 yrs old? You have an advanced sense of aesthetics. Very nice design and well executed.
 
wasn't long ago that another 19 year old was the talk of the Forums and look at him now (MS) Great looking knife. Hope to see lots more from you, especially when you are turning out your own damascus.
 
Welcome! You are quite a talented young man. The fittings on that knife are very nice, and you did a wonderful job with attention to detail.

Gracias a su novia para las fotos.

Yes a fine effort ! Has the handle been dyed ?
May I comment on the photos ? A contrasting color would show the knife better. Green or blue would contrast the grey steel . Have her study the photos by " SharpByCoop " in the forum "stickies".
 
Something in the water in Argentina, I swear. They all join the forums and are like "I'm twelve, been making knives for fifteen minutes, here's a fabulous piece of mine that I'm submitting for my M.S. stamp..."

Amazing work.

More Like "I'm 12, have been making knives for 5 years, here is a very humble(NOT) piece that will be submitted to the Smithsonian, as I earned my M.S. by popular vote".

Extremely funny!

BTW, excellent lines and excecution.
