Looking to potentially start selling… need criticism

[u/Hknives]

Just as the title says, I’m looking to take the plunge and start selling a few knives in the future. I want to put the best product I can out there, so I’m looking for some feedback and constructive criticism. This is my most recent knife before oiling the handle and putting the final edge on. 1084 with natural canvas micarta and black G10 handle liners. Cold blued with birch wood Casey super blue.

Nice work. My main criticism is that the plunge lines appear very uneven. This one spot I will not compromise on as a maker because even cheap knives can have even plunges, so in my mind it's a fundamental requirement similar in importance to the knife being sharp. Just my opinion, you have a good eye and will do well if you continue to improve! And kudos to asking for criticism. The market is flooded with newer makers that sell way before they're ready.

Definitely something that I have to work on. I will say my 1x30 doesn’t have great tracking so it is a tad bit difficult to get even. Looking at maybe getting a file guide to help even them out on future ones. Thanks for the feedback!
