Just finished this one up a couple days ago. Feedback and critiques welcome!

Its 5/32 1084, 8 in OAL with a 3 3/4 sharpend edge. Full flat grind, super thin, with some very pretty cocobola, 5 micarta pins and stainless lanyard tube.

I really like it - nice utilitarian blade profile, clean grinds and a very ergonomic looking handle. A well thought out and proficiently executed design. My personal preference would be for steel pins in the handle, as I think the contrast between the warm colors of the cocobolo and the shiny steel would add a nice accent, but that's just me. Some folks like plaid shirts, some like stripes.
 
Thanks for the kind words. I agree fully but I had some of the micarta rods and figured I'd see how it would look.
 
That's beautiful, I love the simplicity! I just discovered this site and knife making, I can't wait to give this a try.
 
I like it a lot. I think I'd like to see a choil on the blade.
 
Greetings, is it Tim? or Tom? ...anyway; nice knife!
I'm on here seldom but that's a good grind my friend; something many makers find elusive. And a fellow Texian. My X-wife if from Fort Worth but other than that, I love your town! It's old Texas through and through and sports one of the best kept secret art museums in the country!, not to mention that arboretum thingy you dudes have going on there in the park.
Ah but I digress. Again nice knife. And you put the lanyard hole in the right place...;)
