Biggest problem, I kept chasing the plunge lines on all 4 sides trying to get them even and now there is nothing left, Bummer
 
I know what you mean abut the plunge lines. It's a pain. I can't seem to grind good lines on a dagger to save my life. I always seem to pull out the files to get the lines right. Yours looks good.
 
I have come up with a very simple jig that makes getting the lines straight and even easy. Now I thinking of some way to put a stop on it to help with the plunge lines.
