It looks like a real monster. Some other views with different lighting would give us a better look at it. Thanks for posting

Nice looking. I too would like to see some better pictures of it. I'm not sure that that one does it justice.

I don't know if these are a whole lot better but I'm not sure I can do much better with my camera phone.

Judging from the size of the knot in the paracord, it's medium sized with a lot of gravity. Would like to see different angle shots too.

Looks like a beefy blade.......Is that a chisel grind? Nice design, like the jimping.

It is a flat grind up to .5 in. from the spine and then a secondary steeper chisel grind near the edge .

Looks a little front heavy, but overall, very nice.
