I Got a little bored today and started messing around in solid works. I thought it might be kind of fun to post up and see what you guys think. What do you like, what would you change ETC... I've got a lot more work to do on the design but I would like some thoughts. Most importantly does it look like anyone elses design? I may get around to making it when I have time, Which won't be for a while, Maybe over christmas. Fire away.. Overall length 7.5" Closed length 4.4" Blade Length 3.2"

If you want an honest first hand in person kind of impression, you know where I live. 8-) But, looks great and I'll take one, as long as it doesn't cost me an arm and a leg.
My observations: Is that a finger choil between the flipper nub and the blade? If so, I would probably deepen it and make it more secure. If not, I would probably lengthen the cutting edge a bit in that area. Otherwise it's just wasted space and weight.
Which leads me to the question. What do you guys prefer? Finger choil or just a longer blade?
The tanto style tip is nice, but, seeing the majority of knives posted here, a drop point would probably be more accepted. I like tantos, but dislike the chisel grind most tanto folders come with anymore.
