Which pattern?

Ok… so I have the yarn. Which pattern looks more… professional? Nicer?

This… or the next to the last on the bottom?

EDIT - And, oh heck, how many stitches should I make it, width-wise? Medium weight, size 9 needles.

How many stitches depends on what width you want, and how many sts/inch you get with size 9 needles on the yarn you want to use. As to which pattern… do you want even stripes or just a few thin ones…

Well, I just didnt know which one of those two looked nicer for a guy…

As for the other stuff, I can kinda adjust.

I vote for the first one! I think it is a little classier!
you might just have to cast on and do a few rows and see how you like it! I’m not experienced enough to tell you ie: how many stitchs it takes with worsted weight yarn to make a 4 inch scarf?

If it’s a scarf for a guy, you’d want to make it wider than 4", 6 or 7 more likely.

I love both scarves, but if I had to choose I think I’d choose the 2nd one with the strips only on the ends.

I prefer the second one–think simple is better for a guy.
