How about Mammoth Tooth, Mammoth Ivory and Mokume on a W.D. Pease "swinger"

This fine dagger has a handle made of .... Narwhal. Knife by Thomas Haslinger of Canada. Steel is damascus by Mike Norris. Fine piece, I wish the pic was bigger.

Cool little circular lock which holds this little auto in place. Twist of two fingers and out she flies!

One that Dan Winkleer made me several years ago. I supplied the Sperm Whale tooth, Dan's Damascus, sheath by Karen Shook.

Alright, U is a stretch. Here's a katana by Bailey Bradshaw.

And as we all know, a katana is the knife used by Uma Thurman in Kill Bill

 

[Jason Fry]

Here's one by Bladeforums' own SteelSlaver, whose real name is Jim Viall.

Here is one by our own cuddly, lovable, crazy Canadian Rick Marchand of Wildertools.

Here is a set I just finished last week for a customer on here, a marlingspike and pricker.

Green knives... yuck. This knife is described only as "Custom Menace Zombie Killer." If it says custom, and it's got a Z in it, it's good enough at this point.

Here's a real nice one by Koji Hara in Abalone.

^^^ That Zombie knife gives me the willies.... :barf:

B = Bobby Branton. Knife Thrower extraordinaire.

A Kasper Fighting Folder by Pat & Wes Crawford.

Not my knife or my pic.

I do have a nearly matched lefty/righty set of this knife though. Of all the folders I have ever held in my hand, this one design fits the best.
