    Much, much, better. Should roll in your hand easier when stropping, now

    I like it! Graceful curves and sharp lines to the spine, tang, and tail.
    Also, it's admirable how you rolled with the criticism in a constructive way. I would have been a bit angry and started planning the demise of all those involved! Lol

    For me, criticism is very important, without criticism it is impossible to move forward.

    Looks much nicer.

    If I may, something lots of customs-makers do is use thick spacers (sometimes nylon) between the scales and tang at the pivot.

    I much prefer thin brass spacers there. It further streamlines the tang-to-scale when stropping and honing.
