Just need some more coats of Tung Oil on the handle!

I did a 800 grit hand rubbed finish on this one before acid etching it and then used 1200 grit after the acid etching. It left it more like a stone/kasumi finish with the 15N20 being a shinier silver and the 1095 being more of a matte grey look. I know when I dark etch Damascus, it seems to have more drag through food, so I wanted to give it a lighter/less deep etch.

Handle is Corian ferrule, black G10 spacer and stabilized Golden Curly Acacia

That handle is awesome. Really complements the knife.

Thanks! I wanted something nice, but not to overshadow the blade.

It's all sharpened up and ready for it's first owner!

Thinned this one down a bit and made the hollow a bit larger:
