I made a "light Box" and I think improved my picture Quality.
Please critique the photo quality and the knife.

WOW! Looks great Steve!
Thanks for the kind comments!
Dana, I plan to start "Hot stamping" to get a deeper impression. I have been cold stamping and it does not show up as well.
Lin, I studyed your "Guard on hidden tang" tutorial which really helped me out! Thanks!
