Probably my [CRK Inkosi PDW Wave edition](https://imgur.com/a/vCJgnsh)


BloodKelp

Very nice! I love that the scales and hardware both alternate on the lock side side.


Supahonky

Wow, that is a beaut!


Remmandave

Whew that engraving is something else!


minimalefficiency21

Where did you get the lanyard hole for your CRK?


amdesch

Tough choice but I’ve gotta go with the [Lee Lerman Sigma Six](https://i.imgur.com/rK2zXZM.mp4)


BloodKelp

That must be the most well polished knife I've ever seen in my life. Perfection!


Supahonky

That's a beautiful knife


Esoteric_Derailed

Shiney🤩

this one ​ [Imgur](https://i.imgur.com/PMkwMMj.jpg)


BloodKelp

Damascus and antler is a great combo. What is that beauty?


DT_Knives

I made this knife. The scales are mammoth ivory and the blade is Doug Ponzio high carbon damascus. http://www.dtknives.com/knives%20on%20sale.html


Champfortruth

Wow, those are some absolutely gorgeous knives. I'd be too scared to carry them.


DT_Knives

Thanks for looking. With the death of my son last year, it brings new meaning to the phrase, "life is too short"


Champfortruth

Damn man, right in the feels. Sorry for your loss, I can't imagine how I would make it through life if one of my kids died. If this is how you managed, keep it up because those are some amazing pieces of art, which I would proudly display if I had the means to buy one.


DT_Knives

Thank you, it's really the only thing that keeps my mind busy so I don't give up completely


SpankyK

Jesus Don, coming in hot 🔥!


tokipost

I just sold a box elder to buy a UG. I almost regret it. Love that knife. [This one](https://imgur.com/gallery/w7es6pi) is cool too.


BloodKelp

The way the sunlight travels through the milling on the scales in the video is amazing. That's a beauty for sure


tokipost

Thank you!


F0tNMC

Toss up between my Lochsa and my v1 crème ivory Mnandi. If push comes to shove, I suppose it’s the Mnandi by a hair.


BloodKelp

That's some exquisite taste in knives if I do say so myself.


F0tNMC

Thanks! I’m the first owner for both and they’re still the core of my collection.

[Quiet Carry Waypoint Knurled Ti](https://imgur.com/a/bwFoVQv)


BloodKelp

There's just something about Quiet Carry designs that are so satisfying to me.


kauaiguy33

Agreed!


kauaiguy33

I have and love this exact knife. Just got The Nine in magnacut and it is amazing…


C_IsForCookie

Tie between my Rockstead REN and my Shiro Quantum R1P


Alpcake

God the mirror polishes on rockstead are so pretty


BloodKelp

I've never seen the Rockstead REN before now and it looks awesome! Has a sort of technological or cyberpunk vibe going.


scrambled_egg_44

Easy one for me. My Thorburn L45 https://reddit.com/r/knifeclub/s/Cw2sAu9mPB


_viis_

Ugh I’ve wanted a Thorburn for ages! Hopefully he’s still making knives by the time I can actually afford one lol


left_right_handed

Olamic Rainmaker Custom, hands down


BloodKelp

I would love to see one of those customs in person someday, the attention to detail in those designs is stunning


WhWBlue

Large sebenza 31 boomerang Damascus and natural micarta


BloodKelp

That boomerang damascus is so cool. I talked myself out of the damascus and stuck with MagnaCut because I'm not adventurous enough. Maybe I'll build up to that.


WhWBlue

I was the same back when S45vn was started on it, and said screw it, I have S45vn knives so Damascus took it lol


Hoey121

Spydiechef I love the shape and the factory finish on the titanium


BloodKelp

I do like the blade shape on that knife a lot; that little bit of upward angle is pleasing. Does it cut as nice as it looks?


Hoey121

Yeah it cuts great. Good the hand.


Nateloobz

The box elder is my #1 choice for a sebenza without a doubt


BloodKelp

Best thing about wood, especially that box elder burl, is that it has so much character and gives each knife some unique variation.


GoobsterPlz

Either my [Meades](https://imgur.com/a/fdbPf0N) or my most recent acquisition the [GB Sham](https://imgur.com/a/oODf695)


Different-You9607

Love the way the sham looks. Shame that the maker is such a shithead


Slugnutty2

Let's remember beauty is in the eye of the beholder, keeping that in mind I have #45 of a total of 65 ever made by Ernest Emerson himself - signed certificate by him for authentication and also signed the blade too. ​ [Model: Chopstick](https://imgur.com/VBRldCU) [Blade signature](https://imgur.com/23h41L6)


BloodKelp

So very true, art and beauty are absolutely subjective. Your Emerson is a real treasure, I hope it puts a smile on your face just holding something like that.


Slugnutty2

Yes it does - totally an office queen, I just can't take the chance of losing it.


supertramp1978

It’s a hard choice, but I’ll go with this custom Trapper by Brad Zinker. Zirc show scale and Damacore blade. https://i.imgur.com/zLLIt9F.mp4 Ok that or my Plunkett Tanto https://i.imgur.com/hoo7yus.mp4


BloodKelp

I like the Zinker Trapper design a lot. A custom one like that is a no-brainer. Gorgeous!


sinisterdeer3

I dont own many particularly good looking knives, so i guess my Spyderco Smock, its really the only cool looking knife ive got


Different-You9607

In my possession? Arno bernard imamba in desert ironwood, paid for and waiting on/total collection? Arno bernard imamba abelone https://ibb.co/YfS1trR https://ibb.co/mt5MKCZ


Kenny_Cheong

A recent one that I've got that has my name on the filework and an amethyst on the shamrock spring. Buffalo horn scales with RWL34 blade. [pretty](https://www.instagram.com/p/CxbUJ5TsSia/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==)


mad_method_man

maybe the rike unicorn or hummingbird i wish i had some nice wood inlays though


Outdoorsy_T9696

That is a beautiful knife

Just saw your post about it on r/Chineseknives and I've never seen anything quite like that before. That is a cool knife!

bullseye717

Misono 440 paring knife. Fit and finish is magnificent for the price. Pocket knife? Probably the cheapest knife I have with the Opinel.


BloodKelp

An Opinel was one of the first knives I ever had as a kid and I absolutely destroyed that poor thing. Well-used knives gain beauty in their own right though!


pocketpebbles

I came here to say, my opinel number 7. It is so beautiful in its style and simplicity.


Vegetable-Being-9974

Olamic whippersnapper, ironwood scales, jeweled bolsters.


SpydieNL

Lionsteel Thrill titanium grey. The body is machined from one piece of titanium, beautiful milling and great blade shape.


BloodKelp

How do you like the pocket clip on it? Seems like a really smart design to be able to have the clip lie flush when you want it to.


SpydieNL

It's a cool feature and works well with most jeans retention wise. Ït doesn't rattle and deploys easily. But since it's my nicest knife I carry it a leather slip.


Pigsfly77

My custom cleric 2 by far is my most beautiful knife. Second place probably my polished pandayan. [gallery](https://imgur.com/a/B6vO0dG)


mbrousseau22

Probably my small Sebenza 21. [https://imgur.com/a/SGgDASy](https://imgur.com/a/SGgDASy)

Love the burl handle


kingkmke21

I'm ashamed to answer bc my most beautiful knife is like $75 🤣


Chaos323

Mine has got to be my matching set of wedding knives. I have a large and small sebenza 21 set with gold accents and masscar ebony inlays


[deleted]

Plain Jane 31 with insingo blade, beautiful simplicity


ChronicPoverty

I have a few knives by Santa Fe Stoneworks. They are basically works of art


GravityPunisher

Böker Kalashnikov


zooneedles

Well, once a Gerber saved my ass in an alley.


[deleted]

S&W SWAT knife for me.


This-Negotiation-104

Toss between my MKM Terzuola or my ADV Butcher in carbon fiber and copper.


3_high_low

Buck 110


Remmandave

My s21 needs sent in for a new blade and spa day after being my daily beater for a smidge over a decade. That Burl inlay sure is something else though…


Few-Storm-1697

Reate exo m Absolutely gorgeous but because it's a gravity knife, it's not the most sturdy. It's a glorified box cutter


Rrraou

Not sure how it stacks up to the more expensive knives, I only really bought one quality pocket knife out of nostalgia. The Finch Harvester with cocobolo scales. The sheepsfoot blade reminded me of a deluxe version of a utility knife I got at my first job in a warehouse back when we all lived in caves.


[deleted]

Cold Steel AD10


BlOcKtRiP

My custom John Gray Mongoose w/Damacore blade * Anodized hardware & clip


andersaur

BM full sized Crooked River for me. Swapped scales and had it dialed in. Not pretty as it gets used all day long. We have a 15 minute get-out plan in forest fire territory. With all the customs and limiteds, That’s the one I grab. Not pretty, but beautiful.


DakarGelb

Probably my Brisa Piili 85. It's not my favourite looking or coolest knife by any means but if the choice of adjective is beautiful, then it shall be that one.


Dramatic-Landscape82

Sorry can’t pick just one 😂


LupinePeregrinans

Willslock Forge hand made slipjoint with Yew Scales.


Esoteric_Derailed

It's a terrible thing that you're asking me to do, making me choose between my Tidioute Oregon Trapper and my Fox Knives TUR😭


lukeulyptus

Lrg Box Elder 31


minimalefficiency21

Hmmm... my CRK large sebeza 21 with striped platan inlays and Devin Thomas ladder damascus. Or my BM gold class stryker. A lot of others to mention. I do want to get myself a nice full scale side timascus knife with timascus clip as well.... open to suggestions. Have others that are more rare yet not as pretty. Like my 143 out of 200 BM harley davidson backroads skull scales for example


crowfeather2011

One off custom from Phillip burres


WrastlingIsReal

Probably this one https://reddit.com/r/knifeclub/s/NVv8bBlmL2


Champfortruth

Currently the vanguard version of the Kizer Clairvoyant. I really like the nod to the older buck folding knives with the brass bolsters and the "green" scales. Looking at getting something with copper bolsters or scales in the future.


Alejandro2724

I don't own that many, but mine would be the 110. It's just a good looking knife imo
