So far I've owned, microjimbo (current main edc), spyderco ambitious, lil native (back up), and multiple utility knives.

apart from spyderco dragonfly, which knives comes the closest to the 6cm threshold?

so far research I found
CJRB Mica
Kizer Banish
Kansept Little Main Street
CIVIVI Baby Banter
CJRB Mini Pyrite
Kizer Microbe
CRKT Pilar

I'm looking for a leaf shape blade or drop point in steels harder than at least s35vn and no wharncliffe edge (my microjimbo is already perfect for that).
Unfortunately, none of the above meets all the criteria.
 
Not sure of the scale but does the Spyderco Lil Native meet that description? That's a small one that punches above it's weight.

Here are a few I could find: Three Rivers MFG TRM Holier Nerd, Andrew Demko Nano Shark Shark Lock,
Fox FX-526 CF Jesper Voxnaes Suru Flipper, Fox FX-608 TI Jesper Voxnaes Baby Core Flipper.
 
A couple more: DPx Gear HEAT/F 3D Ti Decade Folding Knife 2.26", MKM FOX Knives Jesper Voxnaes Isonzo Flipper Knife 2.25"
This is also great but expletive deleted why does it cost 270 usd🥲
