Ugliest knife?

This is the first knife I ever made, about 4 years ago, from a nicholson file and a piece of whitetail antler. It's poorly heat treated (with a torch), and has the worst sharpening job I've ever seen. It was my first, no one has seen it before this, because I'm not proud of it at all.

For comparison, I snapped a couple pics of a prototype for a new design I'm working on. 5/32" 154CM, ground in a continuous taper with a blended convex edge and 800gr. satin finish, with 416ss bolsters and WSSI stabilized maple burl for a contoured handle. My uncle, and sometimes hunting partner is going to be getting this one to evaluate for me as soon as I get a sheath made for it.

Have a good one,
Nathan
 
Sorry guys! I'm trying to land a red G-10 GW.
I don't think there is just ONE ugly knife. I've seen many.

5 pages and only 1 pic?!?!?

I really wish you guys would post pics instead of just names. I don't want to have to google every knife posted so I know what you're talking about :grumpy:

if you look carefully you'll notice that this thread is from 2002/2003... there used to be more pictures, but most of the links are dead now. :o

As I recall, Frost Cutlery's "Redneck Chopper" was the winner by default:

(note that the reputable swedish knife company is called Frosts, not Frost)
