Which knife maker/company has your favorite makers mark/logo?

Massdrop’s jk

I like the novelty of Ray Laconico’s on the spine, but Elijah Isham’s mark, which is his face, always cracks me up.

ProTech actually stopped putting it on their Brend models...

I like the Spyderco, Gryphon, and Terzuola logos.

There are alot of cool ones out there. CRKT in large print plastered on the blade?

Lol CRKT On the blade is what I DONT like.

I have always like the Al Mar logo/design.

 

[Prester John]

Laguiole Honoré Durand

But Opinel is a close second

The vintage Boker Tree that they used to use on razors is the tits.

I'm a fan of Tashi Bharucha's makers mark. Instantly identifiable is the key to a good and effective makers mark/emblem.

 

[GB940Rookie]

Hinderer, then Spyderco.

Don't get me wrong, I like the front of this one:

But the back is so artsy:

Both are on the front of the FK2:

Spartan is pretty neat:

Nobody does it better than Buck.
In a world where most companies these days use some kind of etch with a big plastered logo and long ass model number, buck does it right with proper tang stamp on all 0f their flagship knives.
They use simple 2-3 digit model numbers , and they're nice enough to include a simple date code symbol.


Just simple and effective, not usually flashy.
However the old English script logo was beautiful, and the 50th anniversary anvil tang stamp on the 110 and 75th for the 119 were pretty cool as well.

My two favorite hands down is Carothers and Chris Reeve.

The Benchmade Butterfly is a classic, and I think the older logo with antennas on the butterly is that "old school cool"

I've always liked the Benchmade butterfly...especially the older, simpler designs. Here's the one on my old (mid-1990s) AFO:

That's a nice one with the "Bali-Song" in there. I tried to get a nice close picture of my AFCK's logo, but I just don't have the equipment for it.

I think part of the appeal to me is that the antenna logos predate my interest in knives, but many of the classic models, that I've only seen pictures of and read about have them.

I like Erik Loreno's maker's mark. I'm pretty sure it's an almost certainly extinct Ivory Billed Woodpecker. @eloreno

Chris Reeve Knives
Microtech Claw Logo/Dagger Logo
Spyderco
Benchmade
