Wharncliffe Manbugs

Who's excited about these? Nothing will beat a box cutter for breaking down boxes, but I feel like these will be pretty close. The all black version will be a day one purchase for me.

I am! I already have a few Manbugs and planned on getting a K390 but I'll find it hard to pass on a Wharny one
Of all the things I've lost I miss my mind the most!

I've been hoping for this and the blackout version is just icing on the cake!

I also feel like these will be great for non-knife people.

I was waiting on a new Jester to pick up my first Spyderco keychain sized knives, but the TiCN Manbug Wharnies changed all of that so now I'll definitely be grabbing a few of these.

I was waiting on a Jester too, but no longer!

I really want to see the Jester, but this Manbug is a nice refresher to the lineup and one that certainly catches my eye.

Yeah, these are pretty cool. I really like my HAP40 Manbug, and my long ago misplaced ZDP189 one, but I think the Wharny style straight edged blade shape is probably even more useful for this size knife.

I’m way into it. Gonna be a cutting machine. Hopefully it’ll be popular enough to get some steel variations.

Reminds me of the Spin. Should be a nice LBK.

You guys can thank me for this. I literally ordered my first Manbug a couple days before that reveal dropped the wharnie news. Kind of like how washing your car can make it rain. Lol :spyder: :spyder:
