Im sure we all think our knives look, good, rugged, functional, classic, well made etc. However some of mine just seem pretty, for lack of a better term. One in particular I have is a Case medim Texas Jack that is an older knife that had been factory refurbed. Its like having a new 60 year old Case knife and I think the lines of that model year are very attractive and the later replaced bone makes the knife "pretty"!

...and I dont mean fancy!:D

All my knives are pretty. I'd have to post my entire photobucket album.
 
I guess I classify mine to some degree. Some stand out in their "prettiness" though I would assume.
 
Pretty.

But as John said above; "All my knives are pretty."
 
This Case Mini-copperhead in sky blue, bone, it's one of the few, colorful knives I own.
 
This old Imperial is pretty IMO.

And this old German Lever Lock re-handled by glennbad.

And a beautifully utilitarian 80OT,given to me by John Kiedaisch when he re-handled my Belt Hawk after I cracked the original.

That's an interesting-looking knife Mr G :)
 
Thanks, Jack. I have had it out in front of me for a few days on my desk. It's quite heavy ( has that weight to it) and the MOP is very nice (pretty). Hard to capture in pictures.
 
I would consider both of these pretty.

I wonder if any of you might consider some knives feminine. For me these two are a bit ladylike. Maybe that's why I like them.

It's beautiful, who is the maker? I know what you mean about the MOP. I'll throw in a pic of the MOP handled Wostenholm Pen I bought the day my grandaughter was born :)

 
That one sure is a beauty!! Old George sure makes some fine knives. Mine is a 5 blade Ulster Knife Co. I just saw one with 20 tools on it and 3 inches long!!
 

it's almost impossible to photograph the fire and beauty in these pearl covers...























These are a few that came to mind, when I think of pretty...
 
A few of mine... :)
