I'm not in the market to buy but I am wondering:
What is the weight?
Second, is that watermelon handle fully of your own making?
It's very appealing. I really like the smooth curve from the grip at the index finger to the heel of the blade.
 
Thank you! A friend of mine made the raw handle material (scales) she is quite talented and of course I shaped the handle. Weight is 7 ounces and balance is right at the front of the handle. The attached shot gives you an idea of the balance and how there is a slight swell towards the front moving into a slimmer waist and then it swells to the rear which makes it incredibly comfortable and ergonomic, super comfortable in both a "pinch grip" as well as holding the full handle. This is how I shape most of my handles.
