Well worn Ka-Bar

I carried this knife for quite a few years, thought a whole of good and bad times. It now sits in semi-retirement.
The shot was taken with natural light through my front window. I've been wanting to try something like this for some time now. I also forgot to set a custom white balance before I started shooting and didn't realize it until it was too late. Let me know what you think.

There just something about a well used tool. I think the color looks fine and I like the contrast of the dirty ole' tool against the clean white table. One question though, is the handle not on straight or is it just me?

Whoops, looks like it got a little distorted during the resize. Dang it!
