Toying with new belt/hand rubbed finish combo, UPDATED

Definitely like it better now! Great work as always Johnny.
 
Thanks guys!
I'll be the first to admit that it can be tough to take criticism, but ultimately that is what I'm looking for with questions like this. I was just shy of slapping scales on this knife when I posted the first pics and thought that I was happy with the finish. Sometimes you need to respect the input and opinions of the community to see beyond your own short sighted vision. I'm really glad I listened to a few folks and finished it up like it is now.

I'm not saying that thinking outside the box is a bad thing at all. I love new and original ideas, but in this case I agree that if I had finished the knife the way I originally intended it would not live up to it's full potential.

Thanks for the input!
