Mine is a handmade skinner. My zombie killer is butt ugly yet still does an excellent job out in the field.

I wouldn't consider any of my knives ugly. But the scales on my BK2 are just plain and I don't like them. Need the micarta ones.
 
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.... ;)

My old laminated MORA is my ugliest knife...I bought for myself as a birthday present maybe 8? years ago in an antique shop for $12.....its very user friendly and gets very sharp...one of my favourites.........FES

Boy those are some uglies for sure! I have seen a lot of black knives that leave me thinking they qualify, just because of the overall dullness of the appearance.
 
Please don't laugh!!! Other than being a pain in the ass to sharpen-I love this cheap piece of doo doo and I don't know why!! I just had to have it (and I still got it)! It fires out with a heavy spring--blade is centered -and the pivot is huge! Maybe it's the "surgical steel" :rolleyes:

7 5/8 " Open

4 3/4" Closed

3 1/4 x 1 3/4 " Tall - Surgical Steel Blade

I actually like ugly knives. To me it gives them a character. My zt 0500 mudd fits the ugly mold to me.

On the plus side if it is ugly, The least likely it is to be stolen!

The spydeyco tuff is pretty ugly too, but thats why it appeals to me!
 
My ugliest are my Rodan (first generation--not nearly as crisp as present production!) and my Imacasa Cane Tapanga. Angled on the last 6-7" of the blade for making cuts close to the ground. Butt ugly but it functions great for tasks around the homestead. I sharpened the hook down to the "crease" of the bend.
