In your opinion, what are some great looking knives. It doesn't matter how well the work, or who makes them, or what they are made out of, just the aesthetics of the design. Pics are encouraged.




For me, the Para military is one of the best looking blades made today. I always here it described as ugly, but I just don't see it. The nice belly that travels the whole length of the blade is very pleasing to the eye. The tall, full flat grind looks great, and the completely flat spine is just so darn cool looking. The handle is the perfect size to compliment the blade, and the large hump on the back gives it a nice bit of flare. i just wish there was an orange model.

Also, there is just something about the Sebenza that is indescribably beautiful. So low key, yet so majestic.

I wish I was a better photoographer with a better camera.

I agree on the Para. Until I actually held it I was skeptical, but if there ever was useful jimping(sp?) and blade shape on a knife, this is it! Some grinds may be more "cool" in looks I reckon.

Bravo-1 is a beaut. Any Randall is too.

For folders I like XM-18 and Strider SNGs. Also, the Spyderco Gayle Bradley. Benchmades Rift is cool. Kershaws Lahar.

it goes on and on...
 
For my money, it's hard to beat the sleek lines of the Gerber Mk. II

Pretty much all of Bark River's stuff is just beautiful - especially with all the different kinds of wood handles available :)

Grohmann knives are also pretty good looking, imho. Especially their Belt and Boat knives:

One of the ones i think is just great looking is the knife in my avatar, CQC-8 with a mirror polish edge...



Theres just something about it that makes it look so awesome to me:D:D
