This Lone Wolf Paul Perfecto is the one that started it all for me with its super pointy, needle-like Wharncliffe blade.

Kevin - very nice group. I kind of like those humpbacks. I do not have any in my collection but maybe that will change.

Scott - very good photo of that Kershaw. It looks like a tough knife.

Bucksharp - Great Northfield!

Q - Two beautiful knives.

Here is my little Seahorse family.

Great Mods, Q! That American Jack looks perfect with the Wharncliffe. ::tu::
I knew I-Man did rehandles but didn't realize his talents included blade mods as well.

Yes, Ivoryman actually did quite a few Wharncliffe blade mods for me. Here are a few more from the archives of mods he did for me on some canoes, a common traditional pattern that you almost never see with a Wharncliffe blade. We dubbed this creation a "Wharnoe" :lol:
IMG_E9988.JPG
IMG_E9987.JPG

At one time I actually did own a factory Wharnoe that was made by Queen DFC under the Schatt & Morgan trademark. This is the only factory made Wharnoe I have ever come across and I suspect it may have been one of the knives cobbled together with leftover parts just prior to Queen closing down for good.

Very cool Wharnoes, Q! I've never seen that Queen/Schatt Canoe either, but they did do a lot unique designs during the DFC period, so it wouldn't surprise me if they tried the ol' I-Man/QTCut patented Wharnoe pattern.

By request, I was asked to post this knife here. This is a Buck, Idaho Falls, canoe/moose with mastodon ivory handles. I have a debate in my head as to whether it is a moonoe or a canoose but now it seems that it could also be called a wharnoe. Should I start a poll? :lol:

That beautiful Canoose Wharnoe is the rarest subspecies in the Canoe family. Possibly extinct, but if any do still exist in the wild, they are extremely scarce and highly elusive creatures 8) ::tu::

Better post the obligatory ubiquitous Case 07W :lol: My newest addition: 1st Run Tequila Sunrise Mini Trapper. I know a lot of folks poo-poo "1st Run" markings as a marketing gimmick, and they may well be right. I wouldn't necessarily buy a knife just because it was marked "1st Run", nor would I pay extra for a 1st Run knife. However, If a knife I want happens to be so marked, I must admit, I really don't mind as long as it's nicely engraved (not merely etched or printed) on the blade or bolster, in fact, I actually kind of like it ::nod::
