I predict that the most shocking and dangerous new trend for 2018 will be SCULPTED LOCK BARS! Talk to your kids before it's too late!

Okay, has anyone seen anything like this before?

Pretty cool that they can do it, but not my style.
I could see a lot of young guys really thinking that's awesome though.
 
I like the concept, but that example strikes me as a little on the tacky side. That said, it's impressive machining for sure, and I'm guessing some folks will really dig it.
 
That looks a bit ugly... It looks like majority of people would not find it aesthetically pleasing, other than the capability. I cant think of anyone who would like it.
 
I like the concept, I don't find it my style, but I do appreciate the programming that made it.
 
And an integral to boot, seems like Rike has got hold of a milling machine that uses some alien technology.

Can't stop laughing. Thanks.

Also impressed by how unanimous the responses are in this thread: "Wow, but no thanks." Same here.
 
Fugly design, fugly color. No reason lockbars can't be more interesting than they are though, just dear lord not like that.

While the design may not be pretty in a standard sense, I see the beauty it would hold in the mind of someone who's a fan of intricate machining and the human skeleton, which not only seems to be the kind of person who this knife is designed for, but also the same kind of person who would actually appreciate this design.

Ugly is an extreme word that should be reserved for the likes of QTRM5TR, this knife is quite a bit more aesthetically pleasing than any of their eyesores.

You could totally hide it in a bucket of bbq wings if you covered it with bbq sauce

I don't see it, but then again I don't hide my knives in buckets of chicken.
 
It has all been well said by everyone else and I agree.
I do have one question, being a hermit nerd my self and not "with it" . . . not "plugged in" , how many people who find it not their thing or even ugly have a skull on their knife or lanyard ?
