I would not try to redo this one. It looks good already. I'd suggest you get a blade and make a new one. Seriously. The one time you will REALLY want to have a dirk on, you'd have your one dirk in a half-completed state and no options for getting one on your hip.
Something else that can be fun, depending on your budget, is to get a couple of blades and make dirks that go with different kilts. For example, if you have kilts in browns, make one with a maple handle and finish to match a brown kilt, then make another one with a handle that goes well with another kilt, but with the same blade, same handle shape, etc. I personally don't like sheathwork (though I am fairly good at it, of necessity) so I'd make one sheath that would fit either dirk. Voila! You can coordinate your outfits even better!
Or, just get a blade or two and have some fun. But keep the current dirk, unless it really doesn't mean anything to you.
