Welcome! I have always wanted a knife like Cliff's custom Dan Keffler. The handle design is amazing, as it seems very practical and ergonomic. I think Dan Keffler lives here in Oregon.

Additionally because the knife is partial tang there is a 3rd little inserted piece of wood (not sure if you can it in the first picture) which conforms to the shape of the end of the tang which glued together to both handle slabs.

Yep. The built-up handle-end is nice.

I like a number of things about this knife so far, including:
- general absence of superfluous features
- choice of an inexpensive tool steel
- multi-position handle.

How thin is the edge currently (prior to heat treatment)?
How much (if any) do you expect the edge to retreat (measured in the vertical/blade-height direction) as a result of heat treatment and subsequent grinding?
