Looks pretty good. Second what Ray said above.
Handle looks just a bit blocky and will probably create hotspots in the hand under hard use....test them hard first before you let a design get out there. You can never have too much light from many directions when finishing. It helps even more if it's mixed light - ie. sunlight, flourescent, incandescent, etc. "Rested" eyes see more as well. Put that much work into a knife, the little extra time you put into the finishing details makes the difference between good looking and great looking.
