This is by far my best work. I am starting to realize where and how to correct mistakes made and what to look for while making the the knife to avoid making mistakes. I have to say this knife making stuff is a true addiction. I want to thank all the very helpful members on this forum for kindly sharing your knowledge.
 
Good job! I'm exactly where you're at (knife #3). It's a great hobby! Metal-working, wood-working and artistry combined into one. I love it!
 
Wow, very nice 3rd! I think your blade looks great. One issue I see is your handle looks blocky. It looks like you taipered it, which is good, but looking at it from the side it looks like you would be grabbing into a block. Look at handle designs on knives kinda like yours and what I'm saying will make more sense. It looks very very nice otherwise though! Nice grind. What's the handle material?

The handle material is Kirinite it is the desert camo pattern with cinnamon red liners. Thank you for the kind words and the helpful tips.
 
Better than my third. Very nice knife. How long is the handle? It may be the camera angle but it seems a bit short. Looks great though. Let's see the next one.

The handle is around 4 3\4 long and the blade roughly 3 1\2 inches
