Here is the twist; only post knives that has an edge longer than four inches, measured straight forward as the crow flies
The sharp bit

Hogue EX-1, very nice, pity about the sharp handle
Cold steel Ti Lite 6, which is only 5,5 inches long, i like this knife a lot despite its morbidly obtuse edge
I am sure cold steel had many more 4+ers but i would especially like one from Benchmade

Which shops actually tells us how long the edge is on the knives we buy?
I think i recall GPknives does
 
Close to 4" bladed Benchmades is the 275 and 810. Two of my favorite knives. Have two 275's and will probably get another 810 but the M390 version. Another good one is the Cold Steel Hold Out 1. 6" balde i believe. Can't think of others off the top of my head.

The Emerson "Super" or "Ubr" lines - commander, CQC-8, roadhouse... I think the other "supers" are a bit under 4" though.
 
wasn't there a thread like this a few weeks ago? anyway, Ubr in the middle:

The Police Model is very comfortable to hold at the end of its grip. Giving it a 5 1/2" to 6" reach past my thumb.
 
Well, it could be because when you posted your original post, there was a 4 page thread on this exact same topic on the very next page, though I admit I figure at least one person would have responded to this thread...

Well that is very strange since i am quite sure i checked five pages before making this thread again

Spyderco Tatanka, 4,5 inch edge, looks very very nice except for the boring colorless handle

This tang does not look quite sturdy enough... why does the washer thing overlaps the edge of it, i have broken an endura tang in that exact area
Also, do you think the locking bar spring could get stuck on the skeleton liner hole?

Not going to dig them all out to photo, but I think the folding knives I have with a cutting edge over 4" would be -
Spyderco szabo
Spyderco Resilience
Lone Wolf Harsey (I have one with frn scales and steel liners - some day I will skeletonize those liners)
Cold steel voyager xl
HTM Mad Maxx 5.5
HTM AXD
Beretta Harsey folder (which is now marketed directly by Fantoni)
Gerber Applegate-Fairburn (one with the micarta handle)
ZT600
Microtech tachyon II balisong
McAhron custom balisong
SOG Pentagon Elite II

Also have a BM810, ZT0200 and Hogue EX1, but I think they narrowly miss the bar, as well as a few spydercos with blades around 4", but shorter cutting edges. I wish Spyderco made a large, strong leaf blade with a blade over 4" that was almost all edge - like a resilience on steroids. The new Tatanka design doesn't appeal to me that much.
