Just because it says Endura 4 on the handle doesn't make it an Endura 4...Ok maybe it does :p

:spyder: That's so cool, Mr. Janich ground that down for you? That's powerful Damithurt juju! :spyder:

I don't know if I'd call it a 'Wharnie' with that curve to the edge. It's more of a 'reverse tanto.' Wharncliffe bladed knives are usually a straight edge - more like a straight razor.

Something like this:

That does look very nice though!

I like the look, but I'd remove that hook and round to match the rest of the hole. But, that's just me, you must like the wave. Thanks for posting. :)

I know this is an old thread, but here is a pic of my Police 3 regrind done to mimic the Janich Endura. It has a 3 3/4" wharncliff (I think the Endura was ground back to less than 3" because Janich wanted to make sure it would be legal to carry most places, my police is much bigger) a flamed blue Ti pocket clip and semi polished G-10 (quicker pull from the pocket). Butter smooth action. Work done by Southard.

I know this is an old thread, but it seemed to be a good place to put this.

The mods done to the Endura and Police 3 are pretty awesome! It would be cool if Spyderco sold them!
