That's awesome.  Normally not a big fan of trailing points, but I think this might be my favorite knife of this style that you've done.  It might just be because I'm on a camping trip this week and we've cleaned 434 catfish, but that blade shape makes me want to see one of these as a fillet knife.  You could thin/stretch that blade out a little and it'd be perfect.

Realy cool Lin. I like how you eased the edge on the handle by forging it in before the bend. Nice touch
