I think the pins are a bit off.

 
Simple and efficient shape and good execution. It should become a kitchen favorite for someone.

Pins are a bit tricky on shaped kitchen handles. Making a template or very precise drawing can help. I've seen far worse than yours, so I wouldn't worry too much. Try and drop the back pin a tad next time.

Also, using CF pins will make the pins less contrasting. Most hobby shops sell CF round stock, and online it is readily available.
 
Very nice! If you hadn't said anything I probably wouldn't have noticed the pins being off a hair. Looking real hard at it, looks like the back pin needs to be lower and maybe it's the palm swell, but it looks like the middle one needs to be a smidge further back. I love the shape though, should be a favorite in the kitchen for sure!
