Unhappy with finished product

Hi everyone, I finished this knife up today, I think it’s my 7th and I’m not very happy with it, I don’t really like how it looks. Is there anything specific I should look to fix on my next build? Thanks

1084 hardening

I just head treated a fairly large 1084 blade. I’ve been running over it with a new file quite a bit now and it’s left these scratches. I tested it with a magnet and it sounds like the file is skating across, but do these scratches mean the blade isn’t hard enough? Thanks
