Picked up a fun one this week. This is a late-2021 prototype Les made while he was experimenting with Wharncliffe-style blades. It eventually served as the inspiration for both the Myna and the reverse tanto version of his Ka-Bar collaboration. I’m especially fond of the micarta handles since, comparatively speaking, Les hasn’t done a whole lot of work with micarta over the years.

I should clarify that it is one of three Wharncliffe prototypes. The second was an incredible Damascus-bladed version he dropped on his website, and the third is a piece he still keeps in his truck to this day. If it’s good enough for Les to carry, it’s certainly good enough for me!
