I think you may have confused "tacticlol" with "doesn't fit my personal taste"; Rock texturing is just decorative, not tacitcool.
/slightly defensive
/having a knife made with that kinda texturing along the spine

That's what killed this thread the last time; the trolls all flooded in to do some good old bashing.
So just to keep score; a non-locking 2 handed opening blade is tacticlol because "reasons".
What killed it, and kills all threads like this, is butthurt. Everyone is all fine and dandy goofing on knives until a knife they like gets goofed on.
Proceed. :thumbup:

Aren't you supposed to catch a boomerang on its way back? Wouldn't doing so result in severed digits like the scene in the Road Warrior in which the bad guy tried to catch the little kid's boomerang? I'd be interested to see the hands of the guy who tested this brilliant innovation.
Necroing this thread for a (possibly?) good reason.
Presenting the Ultimate Tacticlol Knife!
(Except that I forgot the wire breaker above the thumb ramp, and a D-guard for the handle! Dammit! Oh well, onward...)
Um, presenting the Ultimate Tacticlol Knife, Mk IVB, rev A, amended.

Let's go over some of the most important features.
I mean, besides the recurve, and TWO DIFFERENT blade grinds! Because even if you're not in a survival situation, they make everything cooler!
Unnecessary jimping:

AND a finger hole! For extra coolness, and the reverse fighting grip!
Two different kinds of serrations, both possibly copyrighted so I would get in trouble if I actually made the thing, and we all know that controversy makes you even more hardcore! Bonus!

That's a solid design, but needs more guthooks. Maybe three of them.
D-guard that's supposed to look like flames, because awesome. Added the wire cutter at the thumb ramp (sorry Maxim, I ran out of room!), and changed the blade a lot, because I wanted less Tom Brown and more cleaver. It ended up like some kind of mutant recurve tanto/cleaver thing, which made it better!
Whew!
Awright. This is probably my last contribution (yeah, we'll go with that) to this thread.
Because I can't really figure out how to put any more features on this knife!
Well, I probably can. Never mind. Anyway:
