Wharncliffe blades

I've considered buying a really nice gentleman's knife, but I'd just fuck it up.

That's beautiful.

Thanks, LL. That's a dogleg jack. Ken is supremely talented knife maker, (and former gunsmith). He's been on hiatus from knife making for a couple years now, but hopefully he'll be back. He is a good friend and I have many knives he's made for me.

I've never owned one, but I love the look of a Wharncliff blade. Dunno why, but it just grabs me. Same for Puukkos...

Damn it, now I'm looking for a Gentlemen's Wharncliff.

I managed to get the knife monkey off my back almost 10 years ago. I managed to studiously avoid this sub-forum but then I had to come here and ask about Opinels because I lost my EDC knife and here I am getting pulled back in all over again.

Truer words were never spoken: "Once in, never out"

There's worse things a man could spend his money on.

Here is a production model from a good boutique manufacturer, Great Eastern Cutlery. i have several of their knives. https://www.collectorknives.net/shop...icarta-620320/

That being said, I am not a huge fan of the Wharncliffe blade, and my EDC is a small Sebenza with a tanto blade. The CRK version of the tanto blade shape is great for opening boxes and stripping wire, my big uses for a knife.

Muscle cars, old VWs, Imperial Japanese military sake cups, trying to learn to live with Glocks...BTDT with all of them.

Thanks! When the Father's Day Fairy drops by, we'll see how much cash she's gathered for me and I may just add that to my want list. It wouldn't be an EDC, just something a little nicer when I feel the need.

Belly works great when you are cutting against something......

A straight edge works great for cutting in space.....

A Delica or Endura with the slight amount of belly is a great compromise.....

For my day-to-day tasks I mostly cut in space.

If there's not a need to cut against something a hawk bill works even better in space.
