I just do not understand people modifying such wicked folders and really doing such a piss poor job. What do you guys think do you guys like it or not like it :D .
I feel hate is to strong of a word, but this folder does invoke that in me.

P.S ugly bad not ugly good :D

I'm glad to know I'm not the only one who thought it was ugly. :D

Wow. To each their own, but it looks like somebody hot glued baby teeth to their police. :eek:

Come on guys. It is not that bad, he tried so hard to impress you and so proud of the job.

We need to pay attention to discription:" It is hard to see all of the detail and beauty in the pictures, but it is very pronounced. "
Please, little encouragement. :D
He even signed the blade (probably we can take it off with scotch-brite).

I knew that was the one you were looking at before I clicked. Horrible, I couldn't close the window fast enough. What was the point again?

I thought the exact same thing when the link popped open. It looked like someone super glued little globs on it.
Of course everyone has different tastes and if this guy really wants to get into customizing knives everyone has to start somewhere. Personally I wouldnt start on a police and I wouldnt try and sell something like that. But everyone has there own likes and dislikes.
A realitycheck is a time in your life where you do a check of your heart. A time you check where your relationship with God is and where it’s going. Then you make a decision as to where your going from here.

+1 to the list of people who think it's ugly. Before that, I thought that skull cricket was the ugliest. At least that one had some kind of scheme to it.

What a waste of good abalone and pearls, I think selling those by themselves would have gotten a higher price than the current highest bid.

To each his own I guess.

Holy crap!! That is easily the crappiest custom job I have ever seen! I can't believe that monstrosity has 10 bids on it and is currently going for $46!!

I don't know what's worse, the fact that that knife exists, or that people are willing to buy it.

I guess, on a positive note, that it's actually going for less than a "naked" police folder....

Hmmmmm??? This is a CRAZY idea, but has anyone thought that perhaps underneath that mess and once cleaned up .......It might just be a Serious SS PE Police??? Get rid of all that ......Whatever It is :rolleyes: polish it up a bit. Have a Good Ole Police. It's going for a fairly low price???

I don't know how hard it would be to polish out the guy's name though :confused: ? Like I said Maybe just a CRAZY Idea. Take Good Care and Be Safe Always.

God Bless :)

Sort of looks like a sequined gown from the Miss Teen-age Barstow pageant.
