Two circular lamps can be seen on either side of the grille. The front of the Hotknife features a sleek chrome grille with what looks like the symbol of a bent sword pointing down, placed over two edges that are part of the vehicle's chassis.

The Hotknife is a late 1920s/early 1930s Hot Rod resembling a 1931 Ford Model A coupe, with modifications and a custom paint job.
