The Starmate gets my vote as the prettiest Spyderco knife.
While the G-10 handle material may not be able to compete with some more colorful or highly buffed materials, the lines of the blade and overall knife more than make up that minor shortcoming.
Further, the G-10's strength and lightness and to the functional design of the knife.
I will agree that while niether the Civilian nor the Spyderench look good they have beauty of their own.
One way or the other, you pay for your tools!

Oh buddy!! THE sleekest, smoothest most elegant knife by far is the large micarta plain blade calypso.
Without climbing back on my soapbox this knife has it all for elegance. The next would be the chinese
followed by the SS police and then the military. Oddly enough these four represent four very diverse
design goals with all four being a success for their intended purpose.

I think it's only fair to have separate catagories for custom collaborations and in-house designs:
Collabotarions: Close between the Viele and the Lum Chinese Folder with the Lum winning by a whisker.
In-house: I would have said the micarta Calypso Jr until a week ago when I got my carbon fibre Dragonfly, but the latter now gets my vote. The Dragonfly design is extremely elegant and the CF is just the finishing touch needed to make it exceptional.

Don't worry that the world might end tomorrow, in Australia it's tomorrow already.
