Looks great! You will like a Chisan knife!

Enough wood for me. We decided to go a completely different direction. Jigged black Micarta. On this knife, the blade is a2, so to get out ahead of it developing a patina on its own, I had Rick acid etch the whole blade.
I am very very happy with this knife, as Menefee is a badass knifemaker, his grinds, tapers, and swedges just show a crazy amount of skill.
My next knife will be from Mr Chisan, as it's time to support Canadian, and Pathfinder's turned out just excellent too.
