What is your dress up knife?

Mine would my Atwood Solar Arc & Mnandi. My Matt Cucchiara Mini Scrapper "Gecko' would do dress up duty quite well.
 
Bark River Blackwater boot-knife, small and very nicely made but use a leather sheath, that kydex could give off the wrong vibes...

This Weidmannsheil stag lockback I got recently fits the bill here, looks old-school & decorative and not too bulky to be carried in the jacket or 'trousered'

Mcusta folder with ebony scales or quincewood is a good choice too,problem IS there are SO MANY good choices!

My dream special knife doesn't exist, it would be a lockback, sodbuster style in giraffe bone or mastedon/mammoth scales.......
 
Depending on what type of occasion I'm at and what level of steel I can discretely get away with, (if all I can carry is one knife it'll be a bigger Bud Nealy O1 Aikuchi), if I can get away with more I might take a fancier WH Pearl Lancet, also I like to carr a smaller gorgeous pearl handled 2 blade Pen Knife, (I think its a Camillus) or any number of pre 1930s production pocket knives.

I'll have to post a few pics for you guys.
 
but for black tie I have my Kershaw black Scallion H3, and my Platinum Buck Rush. Both are small compact knives, so not very bulky in dress pants.

Benchmade 701 or my Darkstar, both thin profile and if necessary fit in the small of the back.

If I ever had a "dress up" day, I'd want something small and classy with naturaly handles, perhaps something vintage. I wouldn't carry any of the Bruckmann knives in my collection, but I might buy a duplicate of one just for carrying.

Sadly, I have to dress up just about every day now. I generally carry one of my Queen Canoes, BM 440, or a Buck Prince.
