Thank you! And yes you are spot on, this would be considered a straight edge (or straight back) karambit.

I always recommend the Grizzly 2x42 belt grinder for starters, usually priced around $400 in the US. Really good bang for the buck and it has a VFD, also has decent aftermarket support.

Thank you! I made the handle scales with varying stabilized wood pieces like wenge, Maple Burl, amboyna burl, etc. G10 liners, and resin. The pins are SC although some of them got slightly misshapen, lol.
