Sweet handle & blade

[ballknives]

Here are some pics of the Persian blade.I was wondering is it upswept too much or which line to grind it to. I'm liking it the way it is but it may be a bit too much.Also the butt end as Steven pointed out needs to be shaped a little. I have never built a Persian before so What ya'll thinking??

I agree. A little too much upsweep. I would grind to the
uppermost line. You can always take more off.
I would also grind a little off at the choil as well.

I don't think there is too much upsweep, but I do think there is too much belly.
