Kitchen long slicer

I don't make many kitchen knives, but I'll do one every now and then. In this case, it was a wedding gift for my nephew and his fiancee. I first tried it in 1/16" stock and flat ground, but I didn't like the way it came out. So I re-did it in 1/8" stock, full hollow ground very thin for slicing, with a distal taper ground in. Length is around 13", the bolsters are 416 stainless steel, the blade is CPM154, and the scales are stabilized California Buckeye Burl. I was originally going to use Bocote, but my wife convinced me that the Buckeye was prettier, and she was right (she usually is.)
