Finished this up today. I stippled most of the top of the handle and a little bit of the bottom to give the knife a very grippy feel. The handle is very contoured and very comfortable in the hand.

Specs:

The blade is 1080, just under 4 and 1/2 inches long. The handle is 4 and 1/2 inches long. The guard is 416 stainless. The pin is copper. I made the sheath.

Thank you for looking

Thanks guys.

Bill, I used a dremel tool with a small bur to texture. The finish on the textured areas is black leather dye, the rest of the handle is medium brown leather dye. The whole handle has several thin coats of Tru oil.
