[CNoyes]

I like this one:

 

[Peregrin]

This one is my newest and is in my pocket right now. I guess that means it's my favorite at the moment.

 

[Will Power]

So do I! You have some remarkable examples CN.

I have 2 that I like for different reasons first the Northfield #62 courthouse whittler, one of my all time favorites





The #26 I happen to have in my pocket today, I like because it's small and thin, but built like a tank

Robin, I love both of yours, but the bottom one just draws me in for some reason.

Of this bunch (need an updated picture with some new ones added in):

And my homemade wharncliffes:

The winner is the Executive Whittler from GEC (tough choice though). It has some of the most meaning to me among my Slipjoints, as it was my only present for graduating from Massage at University, that I bought for myself. Four inches closed means I get a lengthy primary blade, able to bisect oranges and grapefruit with the best if them! Slim, slides and hides in regular pockets or the scrubs I wear at work. Small secondary blades add to utility. Very well constructed (true split spring manufacture), it is much more hardy than people give credit, I have used it in the bush without worry. Then there are the stag scales, not perfect, but unique, attractive and very solid on a using knife. Slim, sexy and slicey- what more should I ask for.

Second choice has to be this little guy as it spent over a year as my EDC backup to whatever primary knife I carried that day. The tiny Wharncliffe gets into everywhere and is a good manicure blade for rough skin and hangnails- important in my line of work! The tiny punch add immense utility to such a small knife that I think this is a segment of knifemaking that makers should investigate. I never thought clipped on scales would be on a favourite, but it became a favourite despite the scales, and I like the Executive Whittler despite the pen blade!

rockgolfer's #55 Wharnie is one of my fav's here - it's a daily user and a fine pattern.

I only have one folder with a Wharncliffe. I love this one in 100+ year old Elephant Ivory...

I love the Wharncliffe blades. I wish they were a little more popular or at least available in the lower end stuff than they are. Side question: Does anyone know of a Wharnie, preferably with a pen secondary with a 4" handle that I would not have to sell a child to obtain? Or am I looking at fixed blade territory here?

Hard to compete with John's knives and his photos, but here is my Menefee in Mammoth that I bought off BF some years ago.

Hey, I responded to this thread in "General" and now here it is again. That's okay, I changed my mind on which is my favorite.

This is my reading knife. The small blade is the page blade
