I'm watching.

We seem to have been adding "Warnie" blades quite a bit lately. Probably Mike's fault. :p

I'm sure Mr. Janich doesn't mind taking the blame! ;)
Actually, I'd blame Mr. Jazz. It was the Jazzelica that really turned me on to the shape.

Re: Endela Wharncliffe?

I'm so onboard here. Endela would be perfect...though I prefer the PE. Especially in some more exotic steels. That said, I still like the Delica size as well. I absolutely love the Wharncliffe blade and would buy all the steels...all the sizes. Maybe not the Endura size but certainly the Delica and ...

Re: K390 ladybug alert thread

Ladybug is the only Endura/Delica family model I'm not planning on picking up. Really looking forward to the Wharnie versions too. Here's hoping we see an Endela Wharnie in K390! Not to derail the thread but, I hope we see one too. A Wharnie Endela in VG10 would be amazing, but one in K390 would be...

I'm waiting for Cruwear, GITD, or K390.
^This also...another insta buy. Likely two of each. Sprint runs in the Endela (especially Wharncliffe version) would fly off the shelf. I know I would do my part.

I'd take any Shaman in K390, but I'd really like one with a smooth micarta handle - maybe dark green.
Yea, agree here. Micarta would be a winner.

Re: K390 Shaman?

The upcoming K390 Seki line was slow to become a reality, since there was a shortage of K390 last year. I wonder if it's generally not made in large quantities, or maybe it was just bad timing. Maybe 10V is the same? It might explain the limited releases. Hi Albatross, In reality, I spent almost tw...

Re: OK, it's time to get serious

I agree with Jazz, I've found a knife is much better for tasks as mentioned above. I know personally I've found the Wharnie Delica to be a fantastic EDC for my tasks...def superior to the regular Delica...which I also like quite a bit. Regarding the hump, I find it to be super convenient to use with...

Anyone know of a similar thread for the PM2?
When there is a Para 3, why would you want a 2?

Ok, I have a few, but still. :o

To quote myself again: bigger is better! ;) The Para 3 is grrrrreat! The PM2 is greater!! :)
