Ka-bar Knife NEXT GEN
Here's my first next gen prop
I did a ka-bar knife.. to understand the working process of the normal maps, and all the gloss and spec matters.
Comments are very welcome!!

Just joking, looks solid ^^
Yeah, looks good, but you should add more geo. Especially if you want next gen look. PBR friendly maps would help too.
Maybe up the poly count on the grip? If this were a first person model, then anytime the grip is viewed from longways (maybe never?) it absolutely will look terrible. You could easily make that a 16-sided cylinder. That said, if this is a first person model, it will most likely always be covered by a hand and then the grip is an afterthought and the grip doesn't need nearly as much texture space. So it comes down to figuring out what purpose you want to create a model for and then you can illustrate to employers that you understand how to model for games based on applications.
However it's worth noting that the fingerprints on the knife's spec make no sense whatsoever. Are only the tips of fingers touching this thing and never any palms or the length of fingers? Definitely consider that when texturing.
