Quick question about the handle.
I have very limited experience with Isiah's work, the one handle of his I have held in my hand felt far too large for my liking. How do you feel about this handle? Looks appropriate compared to the blade in pictures.

IMHO the handle is a great fit for this blade... :thumbsup:

Is there a purple tint to the front of the bolster or us that just a reflection of something?

Yes, it has this really nice little purple nebula happening... its my favorite part on the knife!
