I just finished up a new design and figured I'd see what you gentlemen thought of it. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.
Aldo's 1084 59 HRC 14oz 12in Overall length 7in from tip to front of handle .227in thick at the ricasso 1.5in wide at ricasso Black G10 handle with White G10 liners and Micarta liners Micarta pins Sharpshooter Sheath Systems leather sheath. Being a fighter I ground the edge nearly to zero and thin but put a small bevel on it. The edge bevel is highly polished and shaving sharp. It's very acute but I could make it more obtuse... There would be a sacrifice in cutting ability but an increase in durability. The handle is very comfortable. The sheath is made by Sharpshooter Sheath Systems and fits the blade perfectly. I imagine it could be used ambidextrous but it's been in it in the right hand position. It may have formed to "right hand" position some but I bet you could reform it for lefty. Knife is sterile as my stamp is damaged and I haven't got my etching system up and running yet. Sorry for the sub-par pics, I'm not a photographer by any means.
