I wondered about the sharp edges, but thought you could adjust after a test drive, that's the beauty of working with wood, you can always take some away.
But for this >> So if I had it to do over I would have made it longer.
You mean the handle, right? But then how could it (the wood scales) be longer than the tang? Would you start them higher up on the blade (towards business end), or extend them past the end (handle side) and add a spacer of some type to replace/extend the end of the tang (as commonly done for some light duty table/Kitchen knives?)
