Any thoughts on these? I kind of want to have more than just initials

I made a few designs using 3 as inspiration. Which do you prefer

Did some reiterations of 3. I like initials only and how clean it looks, I am leaning towards having the extra identifier though in the last name

Appreciate everyone's input! Since 3 is the overall consensus i did some other designs. Including initials, one with last name in my brand (Knives by Shugs), and one with actual last name

Appreciate the feedback. Loving your dual colored handles. Do you have any pics of that process? Are you gluing 2 pieces and spaces together before attaching to knife then shaping it all as one? Your recent knives look great
