Potentially one of your nicest knives so far, if it was me and just IMO I would have put a bright coloured spacer between the handle and the bolster. With big 1" stock, I kind of worry about your elbow blowing out! Its seriously hard work so wrangle in a hammer monkey with a sledge and save yourself some pain :)

Thanks for keeping in the handle shaping, I struggle with handles on my 2x72 and tend to revert to files and sandpaper for the extra control, at the expense of time and effort. It was worth seeing and didn't take too long to go through. Knife turned out fantastic. I noticed you skipped the pin, but did take some chunks out of the tang if I saw correctly. Love the lines and color transitions. The bevel lines and the handle lines match up well and keep the overall theme solid. Another work of art!
