Here's a hunter I finished recently. This is one of my favorite handle profiles. Its carved and subtly contoured. I find it extremely comfortable in several holds and very indexable.

Specs:
Forged from 1075
3 1/2" blade, 7 7/8" overall
Full distal taper
Rounded spine and ricasso edge
Rounded filed thumb grip
Stippled bronze guard
Bronze spacer
Black g-10 spacer with angle cut coining
Carved and sculpted stabilized curly Koa handle.

All comments and discussion welcome.

True knife art John, beautiful. Love the overall style, and your attention to detail is impressive. Hamon is gorgeous.
