My first own design and build

This is the first knife I designed and built by myself. Ok, this isn't totally true, as the heat treatment of the blade was made by a company specialized in this. Anyway, this is what the design looks like. 
I used ground flat stock, I bought a piece 3 mm x 75 mm x 500 mm. This is O1 steel. 

At the moment, I finished the knife. I attached the handle and it is currently drying after 3 coats of linseed oil. I need to take and add pictures of the completed knife.
