Kev, I really can't see the scales with the shadow on them. Maybe post another pic in better light.

Overall looks like your getting better and better. JMO but clean the fingerprints etc off the blade and maybe change the lighting.
Just constructive criticism

I really like it. The deep "hook" finger guard is a nice touch. Well designed to work. Congrats

The knife and scales look good together, but like everyone said you need to clean the blade up and work on your photo skills. Here is a homemade photo tent, it will give you some ideas. http://digital-photography-school.com/how-to-make-a-inexpensive-light-tent

I tried doing a forced patina on this one and I just wasn't happy with it so I scotch brighted it, I still need to clean it up a bit.

Some better pictures would make it a lot easier to be able to give you feedback.

You have to come up with a "signature" or initials to stamp in your blades
I like this knife also.
Post up some with file work
