That's exceptional. I like how the plunge is parallel to the handle segments, and the subtle choil. The handle is great overall. The harpoon is quite abrupt. Is the top edge sharp?

Thank you, and thank you especially for noticing the matching angles! That’s a detail that is important to my eye.

The false edge is not sharpened.
 
Here is the next batch headed to Peters' for HT. 6 X S90V all taken to 320 grit.

This is how I package blades for shipment, saran wrap with cardboard to protect the blade, postal worker and receiver.

Not a great picture, this is the only way I have found to polish S90V post-HT. This one is 61-62 RC. Die maker stones up to 1200 grit using Windex as lubricant, then dry SIC sand paper straight pulls at 1000 grit gives a nice satin finish.
