for me, a liner lock with aluminum scales, assisted opening, fully serrated chisel ground tanto blade, big choil, shiny clip, ginormous name/logo on the blade
 
Yes, definitely ginormous logo on blade and fully serrated. In addition, scales must be checkerboard blue and yellow, and made from cracker jack plastic. Washers must be made out of... what am I saying? No washers please, or if there are any, make them paper.

And I think hardheart's nailed another 'must have'.... big, fat, ugly, choil... please.

there. I'll take a 12 pack of those knives. Thx.
 
Darn, somebody already beat me by a few hundred years . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . a kukri!







O.K. I have a CS Kukri, and it came scary sharp and is facinating; but I've never found anything to do with it.
 
A lanyard made of bright flashy colored paracord, with a skull or other shiny trinket braided in.

That was funny...you mean like this? Found it on a site a few days back...I laughed pretty hard at this picture.

that be a ccc linerlock made out of aluminum, 440A, aka surgical stainless steel,
 
420J2 and a grip of either pink plastic, one wrapped in paracord, or one of a big ol' ergonomic antler root!
 
Any cheap survival type knife made in china with compass in the handle, a screw holding the blade and a really crappy sheath. Naturally it must be stealth black, have serration everywhere, the more the better. It has to have a fancy name and the more gadgets the better A 68 piece survival system outperforms a decent Fallkniven F1 anyday :)
 
Mine would have to have a black coated blade with a coating that scratches and comes off with basic use. It would also need a guthook and a corkscrew. And of course it would be a linerlock and also have plenty of blade play.
 
cheap chrome plating that flakes and chips off because they couldn't figure out how to polish a good steel.

You basically designed it for me. Make the handle really bulky and square, with lots of pressure points. Make the clip unecessarily small and pointy and place it in a way so that the knife sits crooked in my pocket and 1/3 of the handle is showing. And slap on a big fat thumb disk for good measure.
 
Hm, I'll play along :thumbup: If I insult anyone's favorite design, I apologize and recommend you re-evaluate you choice in cutlery style :p

- Americanized tanto point, recurve blade, partial serrations.
- "surgical stainless steel"
- aluminum or steel handles with sharp, non-rounded edges
- liner lock which travels completely across the blade
- big-ol' choil
- no opening method, whatsoever. No thumb stud, opening hole, thumb disc or nail nick. Nada, zip, zero, zilch.
- pocket clip that allows knife to "get out and explore a little"
- lots of traction grooves all over the handle
- serrations on the blade spine "for when it really counts"
- lots of fullers throughout the blade

Yeah, that's just the folding knife I *don't* wanna find in my pocket :D
 
A double edged folder with a knuckle-duster handle. Make sure the knuckles have spikes protruding from them. Then give the whole thing a "fabulous" rainbow anodize. Oh yes, it should endorse Harley-Davidson somewhere on the blade or handle.
