What's the best looking fixed blade in your opinion?

I really like the looks of the Bark River City Knife (please excuse the SAK)

Absolutely gorgeous! What's the handle material?

Good idea for a thread. I used to want a nimravus as well, and I began my collecting with Sog fixed blades like their older style leather washer bowies. The recon bowie is a beautiful knife.
The Busse TGLB is also a nice looking knife.

From a recent copy of knives illustrated I found some of the work by maker Sam Lurquin. I think his stuff is really beautiful.

I don't remember! . I'll find the box, maybe antique bone?

Those are beautiful!

I really like sub hilt knives, but both are equally gorgeous.

For awhile I collected custom hunting knives. To me the epitome of a hunting knife is the standard Loveless design with slight drop point and high hollow grind. Second to that I like the looks of the classic Randall model 1, or maybe I should say model 5 since I like the looks of the smaller guard better. I've also seen some standard Bowie designs that I really liked.

I have a Blackjack model 7 and it is a nice looking knife for sure. But if I really have to pick a fixed blade knife on aesthetic basis it would be my Mauno Keränen Tommi - puukko.

Edited to add the pic.

Any of several Finnish puukkos. I find the pattern incredibly aesthetic AND ergonomic.


Picture worth a thousand words:

Kabar Becker bk2 is a real classic, not having that perfect ferro striker spot kills us a little inside but I love the sucker to death

I could never decide on 'most attractive' anything. My taste will change daily, and the blades posted in here already have me second guessing myself. So for now I will post this beauty I first saw on reddit.

Very nice. Can you tell us what it is?

These bowies from a local maker. I own the bottom left corner one with natural canvas micarta.

I really like the brutal simple looks of my Scrap Yard SOD.

Not very many details sadly! The maker grindermonkey named it simply: Carbon fiber kwaiken
