[Big Papa]

What's the name and show a photo.

Would love to see what everyone loves?

I'm not really a huge Wharnie fan, but the GEC #48 Improved Trapper (in its various permutations) is really nice.

Mine is a Reese Bose stockman

I love the swayback pattern for a wharncliffe blade. It just sits so well in this handle shape. Like this one by Bret Dowell:

Hard to pick just one, but one of these 3

Very fond of the Sway Back Jack.

 

[Humppa]

The Otter webermesser is a great tool, indeed and features a wharnie



(knife in the middle)

Mine would be my avatar knife, a Schatt & Morgan F&W English Jack, which Don Hanson III of Sunfish Forge reground for me.
He turned the spear blade into a beautiful Wharncliffe.

This one. Not a true wharncliffe because it lacks a perfectly straight edge, but I haven't noticed any difference except when sharpening.

Sensational! We have a candidate for Knife of the Year in this one. You are a lucky man, really.:thumbup:

I admire the Ohta approach to Wharncliffes although my own Ohta comes with a lengthy Clip.

As regards a production knife, the GEC 55 Houndstooth is a very pleasing example.

#55 Houndstooth is hands down my favorite wharnie. Since it arrived in summer its been my primary edc. It just recently had its tip slightly reshaped because I broke it. Have not noticed a true lack of performance for the wear. Look forward to many more years of use. The bone is just so perfect and aging nicely I may add. I am edging ever so close to buying a backup before they are gone.


When she was new, hot and humid that day





In contrast to the rainy day we are having today



Is it summertime yet???

This one, which I regret selling

Also this CASE is such a great knife and it's a shame I don't give it enough pocket time
