I really like them. I'm not much on complex grinds but that finish makes them more appealing to me. I really like the contrast on the handles also. Good job.
 
Oh man. drool!

I really like that finish too. Should be easy to maintain. That A-2 will rust if you breathe on it.

+1 on the secondary bevel too. That's how I like mine. Ease of sharpening, strength, and maintenance friendly for the customer.

Very nice work!
 
You got an awesome wrap yourself man. What kind of cord is that?
 
Nylon shoelace over orange paracord. I epoxy the tang for moisture barrier, wrap and then epoxy soak the entire wrap. Makes a tough handle.
