latest one, with some firsts

Just finished this one up a few days ago, specs:
1095 steel, clay coated, hand rubbed to 2500 grit
9 1/4" OAL
4 1/2" blade
Tiger Maple handle
Brass guard
mosaic pin
this was my first time using a mosaic pin, and i gotta say i really like them, they add alot to a knife, this was also my first time putting a false egde on a knife, i did mine with a file and it took some time but i like it, another first for me was some filework, it was scary to do but not as hard as i thought, i went pretty simple but i like the pattern


a little better shot of the hamon

the filework

closeup of the pin

a shot of the false edge

and i kinda like this pic even though its bad

Please post comments and critiques, i need all the help i can get, thanks for looking
