Chase does great work on custom handles. I own this one--I aquired it from the guy who ordered it...

(It is iron wood and CF scales...)

Mnandi. I love it!

I just got a ProTech Godson with maple burl handles that I am blown away with but I also like the Case SlimLock.

for production knives, i really like the looks of bark river knives. and they're well made too. :thumbup:

for production knives, I would say that the Queen Dan Burke English Jack in black pearl does it for me.

I personally like the Bob Lum Tanto folder. Also his fixed blade Tanto is a real "eye catcher". Come to think of it I don't think Bob Lum has a knife design I don't like.

The best looking production folder I have is a Spyderco Lum Chinese folder with jade green Almite handles. It's just a beautiful, aesthetically pleasing shape with a nice VG-10 blade. I really love this knife!

Hard to say, since there are so many beautiful knives around. It would be something with clean lines, natural handle materials, and a damascus blade.

Without pointing fingers though, I think a few of the above are not attractive at all [clears throat and says "boker orion" under breath].

Best Wishes,
Bob

i totally agree with Bob W

but beauty is in the eye of the beholder

Some really great looking knives. None seem to be serrated and only a few have holes!!! I like the Mel Pardue Benchmade 3200 auto's. The Benchmade 3200's are not real big but I have found them to be reliable and tough EDC's. I also like the Boker AK-74 model even though it is very reasonable priced.

They don't have the gorgeous burl wood or fancy filework but they still look good to me.
