Stub tang knife - Product improvement

Hi all

Not long ago i made my first hidden tang knife in a while. I really liked the design i made, so after reading your comments i tried doing some improvements to the design.

I changed the slope and geometry on the back of the handle and beefed up the overall handle.
I changed the geometry of the blade a little.

I tried using S304 for the guard. It wasn't so bad working with as i'w read on multiple sites :-)

Knife:

Ermine v02
Blade: 01 steel
Guard: S304
Pin: S304
Spacer: Blue fiber
Handle: Brownheart wood

Original design:


Improved design:



My first time adding makers mark. I didn't etch the logo deep enough though :-( I'll get that next time.
