Beautiful knife! Considering that I have never even begun to make one myself, I'm a little loathe to criticize too harshly, but in the name of improvement....
1. Clip blade proportions are definitely a bit off, to my eye. The long pull is a bit short, the blade is too wide for such a long clip, the clip itself is too straight, and unswedged (which contrasts with the elegant double fluting) ...in short, it could all work together better.
2. Pins are all different sizes. Optimally, they'd match.
3. The edge bevels and fit and finish seem like they are not as uniform as could be. It makes it look a little "handmade" rather than fully "custom."
