With a woman like that I'd expect your budget to be at least twice that. Good luck OP. Quote HistoryQuoted:

I'd like to do a somewhat practical gift for my groomsman at my upcoming wedding and a folding knife came up as a good choice. I'd like to keep it less than $75 per knife and I would like something "unusual" that you can't pick up at a store. Suggestions with pictures would be appreciated. I'm also cross posting in the knife forum to see what they say. Per the rules, picture of fiancee. http://i153.photobucket.com/albums/s232/brucers99/0ef67868496423f0db0be1c4fd0cee12_zps3fb583f5.jpg With a woman like that I'd expect your budget to be at least twice that. Good luck OP. Yeah, I can go higher. It's the number of groomsmen involved (7) that makes it expensive. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |

Krikey. They're being good friends standing up for you, renting tuxes and incurring all sorts of expenses and you want to go cheap on them?
C'mon. I just got married this summer. Groomsmen all got brand new pistols. Hell, I bought a $75 flashlight by Eagletac for my junior groomsman. ETA: 5 groomsmen. Self-defense pistol. Ruger LCP. |

Not a folding knife, but a nice finnish hunting knife is different and fun. I got my dad a wood jewel, and he likes it:

75 bucks will buy one helluva nice bottle of booze. There are few things more practical, and few things more likely to be enjoyed down the road. Looking at the fiance, the age the groomsmen will be is going to prevent them from enjoying $75/bottle booze. They'd just mix it with Red Bull. I'd get them Esee Izula 2s. |

Get bobble head dolls made from photos. Did a wedding this weekend, and the groomsmen gifts were just that. At first I was like ...  then I was like 
It's pretty unique and not something people would spend $70-80 bucks each on for themselves. Perfect gift. edit: congrats. seriously? a bobble head doll would be in the trash exactly 60 seconds after I got it Then you suck at having fun.

Good luck OP. WTF does that have to do with anything. He has a good looking fiancée, so what. Fucking leg humpers need to get out of the basement more. I received one of these as a gift once. It is mounted in my garage and I use it all the time . http://www.capcatchers.com/ |

Another vote for an engraved esse izula. That's right around $75 each.

Congrats and the American Society for the Blind are making huge strides in restoring eye site, hopefully she will be able to see soon.
I like the engraved lowers thing, then in about 6 months all of you guys can get together and have a build party. |
