I think that it looks great, however the
guard looks a little to thick for me.

^ I was going to say the same thing.
It still is a really nice looking knife.

Overall it looks pretty good, but I also think the guard doesn't do it justice. If you even beveled or rounded the edges of the guard, I think it would look nicer.

Classy good looking piece Mike

I really like it. The only part I don't like is the same as some of the others. The guard is too thick and too visually "heavy". I love every other part though. I like the fighter type swedge, nice amount of ricasso, the damascus fittings and the coin edge silver spacer. The stag also has a very pleasing curve too it, it makes the handle look comfortable for swinging/chopping.

My first thought was that the guard is too thick, but the knife looks very good just the same.
