Hello! I've been making knifes for around 2 years, this design in photos is my "standard" design, mostly used by hunters, but should be good for camping and general use...
From beginning, I made a few improvements mostly based on comments from hunters who used them. Some of them are sharpening choil, added lanyard hole, "pointier" tip, bigger butt for easier pulling out from sheath...

So this is how it looks now. Soon I'll be making bigger batch so I would like to hear your opinion, what else could I improve, weather functional or aesthetic.

One thing I am planning to add are Loveless bolts instead of just stainless rod pins.

Only thinG I might change is softening the “corner” just under the index finger groove. Might make it a little more comfortable in a reverse palm grip. Personal preference really.

Other than that, looks like a very serviceable design.
 
Neat and clean. Looks excellent. I agree that the point behind the finger groove could be a little less pronounced.
 
Thank you very much!
So, drawing/designing night it is :)
I'll try to make finger groove more shallow to reduce that point.
