Hate the look/Feel of a knife? Tell me your least favorites! You don't have to have a picture, please share no more than a few. Here's mine-#1 Gerber Paraframe

I absolutely hate the Grimsmo Norseman. It has a lot going for it, except that tip... Oh boy, does that think look...how do I say it..."special Ed"...

Sorry, I'm sure it's an amazing knife, but holy s**t is that tip ugly! If it came with different grinds, I'd definitely have one though. John seems like a great guy too, and really seems to have a passion for his work.

And anything that is stupidly thick and clunky. Like Medford, Direware, etc... Everyone has their own taste though, I just think the whole "folding boulder" thing is pretty ridiculous.
 
I gotta say, Grimsmo Norseman sounds really cool. But now I am wary of the tip.

Hard to come up with a knife I really hate though.... I'll give it some thought.
 
Threads like this usually end up being nothing but trouble. Troublemakers will get smacked.
 
I bought a BM Griptilian a few years back and hated it. I guess I expected too much after owning a BM 710. I just hated the hollow plastic handle.
Another one I hated was the Spyderco Native. Never warmed up to it and sold it off.
 
The Gerber Paraframe is definitely one of the worst.

For me it's most any frame lock I have ever handled, and liner locks aren't far behind them. I know a lot of folks love em, but they just dont do it for me.
 
Benchmade 755 MPR. Excellent blade; scrap the rest. I own one...sits in a box.

Now I want Benchmade to make a Lil Chubster.

Hahaha! It will be direct competition for the Spyderco Chubby.

I can see the marketing now: "Is that a Lil' Chubster in your pants, or are you just happy to see me?" - Benchmade
 
I don't actually hate any knife, honestly. I have tons of knives that I love, however. :thumbup:
 
Hate an inanimate object, don't think so. There are knives that I like and some I don't care for based on design, materials and so forth. As far as hating the Emerson A100, that knife may have started it all off for today's tactical knives. I like the simplicity and the functionality of the design.

I think this is me, as well.

I would say something like "I hate M-Tech", but honestly, I don't give knives I don't care for enough thought to hate them.
 
Your question made me think seriously about this, period ! Looking back and around, I wouldn't say I hate any knife.... even the most stupid ones in my opinion. It's just a matter of "I don't like = I don't buy". However, I may hate myself for having bought certain knives. Indeed.
 
I hate my 0600. Damned thing won't let anything else into my pocket.
