As I said in a previous post, I prefer knives which have a simple, modern design. This means clean lines, elegant form and a sense of balance int he desing. Give me you opinions on the knife (folder or fixed, custom or production) that you feel has gorgeous form (not just fancy colors).
 
Every fighter I've seen from Jerry H. every folder from Greg L. and every knife from Trace R.

P.S. I'm sure there are others but these struck me the very first time I saw them and I haven't had to change my mind so ....

I'd have to say, anything by Crawford and son. They all have simple, yet elegant form, especially the new Falcon series. Also gotta love the ProTech Godfather.

Gotta go with Bensano. First time I picked up the LCC I was hooked. Bought four of them. It's now my EDC. I'm knifesturbating with it right now.
 
But last night, I was shutting down my office and my Rekat Carnivore looked up at me from my desk and said "Hey, nice hooters." Needless to say, I'm selling it asap, so keep your eyes open in the For Sale forum.

Professor.

I'd have to agree with the Lizard King. Everything by Neil Blackwood has got that simple elegance.
 
I honestly don't think that there is "a knife" with the best lines. . . Specially considering that "all my knives" have the best lines ! ;)
 
more than in others.


I would have to say bob dozier's agent has some of the best lines around.


strider fixed blades also have nice lines.

It's not fancy...just perfect;)
Crappy pic, from a camera I borrowed--
 
My vote has to be for the Delta-Z/Darrel Ralph Osprey. Very sexy lines! :)

That's just another way of saying "Ken Onion" as far as I'm concerned...

Darrel Ralph and Neil Blackwood have good eyes for style.

Bailey Bradshaw. JW Smith.

Even better albeit more avant garde:
David Broadwell and Larry Fuegen, Roger Bergh, Michael Walker.

Other's with great sense of eye, style, flow, form:
Steve Hoel, Tim Herman, Anders Hogstrom, Schuyler Lovestrand, Bob Lum, RJ Martin, much of Jim Minnick's stuff, Ken Onion, many of WD Pease's pieces, Mike Sakmar, Jim Siska, Walter Brend, Ricardo Velarde, Reinhard Tschager.

Dietmar Kressler and Steve Johnson are traditional "Loveless style" proteges to a certain degree, yet the elevated perfection in their craftsmanship exhibits a certain elegance and grace while being somewhat mechanistic and linear at the same time (a good trick).
 
I have to agree with Lizardking on Neil Blackwood for a fixed blade and with SAS on Ken Onion for the folder. Both are beautiful knives.
