A very interesting and unusual object and the way you photographed it really suits the character of the item well. Is that "fade to beard" I see? :-)

This is interesting. I like the border treatment on this shot. It is simple and elegant. Really like this a lot.

I like the coloring and the way the border goes underneath the handle though I do wish that the handle was in focus as well.
