Second knife attempt

[Gafishing]

Hello all
I decided to try and make a knife on my spare time (cause my wife challenged me)and came up with this.
My first one came out even worse so I'm not gonna show it.
It's o1 tool steel with canvas micarta handles and g10 liners.
I left the heat treat shade on it to give it a different look.
I would appreciate tips and critiques.
Thank you all
Andy

Well sir, I have no experience making knives. But I would be very proud to show that off!

I'd just round off the corners on the handles more next time. Keep chipping away, this is very good progress (and a genuinely useful design)!
