But... but... the pictures?

At around $94, it's really hard to beat the Sage 1 for "pretty" knives.

Although all three of my daughters would beg to differ

I would venture to say the Chaparral is prettier, only due to the fact it is more petite. I take that back, the Sage is pretty and the Chap is cute...

Talking about pretty (I don't own all of these):
-Enzo PK 75, the new modell (I have one)
-Anything in Sardinian traditional style (Pattada/Rezolsa) (I have the Fox knives version)
-Queen mountain man lockback (I have that)
-Many Finnish puukko's are awfully pretty! (I have some, not real pretty one's though)
-Spyderco Gayle Bradley Air (ooh, I would love to have that)
-Spyderco Des Horn (more at my price point than Air)
-Blackjack model 7 (I have one )
-Spanish navaja's (love love love)
-Laquoiles (have one)

If I absolutely have to choose one pretty knife (to avoid flooding this with pictures) let it be Laquoile R. David. Edit: oops, had to be under 100 dollars. With luck I quess Enzo would be in this price range, the Fox pattada surely is and many Finnish knives too!

I have to go with the Kershaw Groove among knives I own.

(Someone else posted the pic previously.)



Also, the CRKT Ripple, especially the blue version.

Anxious to see the various nominations. Would also like to see a second category: Folders under $50. From what I see, the plain flat scaled/plainframe look has overtaken aesthetics in that category.

Second the nomination of the CRKT Endorser. Bought it simply from pictures on the web and found it more beautiful out of the box. By the way, $37.00 so fits in the under-$50 category.

I'll vote for the CRKT Ken Onion EROS Titanium. Luckily found one under $100. Yes, looks are Alien-like but sculpted beautifully. Love it when simplicity and complexity come together in artistic design.
