Description

Designed by Jake Diaz (haveanicedayknives)

At CJRB, we are proud to introduce the Fugly knife, a design that embraces the unconventional. Inspired by Australian slang, the name "Fugly" led to a creative exploration of unique design elements. 

The design features bold choices, such as a narrower pivot compared to the blade and handle, and a combination of a flat finger choil with a pointed beak. These elements were carefully balanced to create a cohesive yet distinctly unusual aesthetic.

Attention to detail is key, with features like gold thumb studs that intentionally misalign with the jimping and blade stripes that don't necessarily complement the overall design. These quirks contribute to the knife's "fugliness," while ensuring it remains a comfortable everyday carry (EDC) tool with an incredibly functional blade shape.
