Not bad Don. Good working design. I'm not sure you want to stop your temper on 1095 at 350*, it will still be a bit hard. Most take 1095 a little over 400*, which will make it a bit easier to sharpen and less prone for the tip to break off.
Handle finish looks good but now you need to focus more on blade finish scratches and grind divots around the ricasso areas on the next one. The buffed mirror finish just makes these stand out more.
