New design prototype

[JB Knives]

This is the first of one of my new designs (and my new personal carry knife!) I built this knife for slicing and piercing ability, and it grows on me the more I handle it. This edge cuts like a straight razor! I'll be making more soon, in my usual A2 and in CPM S30V. Here's the specs:

4.75" recurved cutting edge, 9" overall, 1" wide
5/32" thick A2 tool steel; H.T. and cryo quench by Paul Bos @57-59rc
Deep hollow ground blade, 400 grit satin finish
Stabilized redwood burl lace handle scales and black spacers

Thanks for looking!

The blade looks good, the handle looks extremely comfortable, and I like the dip with the thumb grooves for control.
