+1. The beauty of a knife, for me, every bit as much in how practical and usable it is if not more than it's actual physical beauty.

My outlook on that knife - I had it made - for me - to use (yes, it's a full custom)

I could go for one of them that looks like a bug. Yeah, too pretty, but so what? One nice thing to gaze upon on a frigid winter night (other than the wife, of course).

It's nice to know that there are show quality knives being used the way knives were intended to be.
