haha- "book by its cover" works sometimes jimmy. but if my wife went by that, well.........
im glad you like the lines, it was a lot of fun "drawing" in the finished shape at the grinder, testing the feel as I went. the results are very pleasing, to me at least. :chapeau

I really love the feel of this one, kept refining the handle for feel during the shave. heres a couple others which I no longer have, with the same design to the handle but in a spike point version and a Spanish point. the Spanish point version I also did some experimenting with textures and bevel details on the tip. hammered texture on the tail and some ground in texture on the blade faces, a lot of fun :D

How heavy is this thing
