I don't have one, but I am surprised that no one mentioned the DFly wharnie so far (well, wait till Aicolainen comes across this thread;) )

Would most likely be my choice with its thinner blade among the lil wharnies.

Microjimbo, but I’m biased towards any MJ design. I had the original Yojimbo (later sold it like an absolute fool) and it started me down a slippery slope of anything wharncliffe. After discovering the modified wharncliffe, I dug deeper and grew an appreciation for actual wharncliffe blades on traditional knives. I joined Bladeforums in 2011 with the name “Wharn” and the rest is history.

Dragonfly Wharncliffe as dark horse bracket buster…

I had to laugh! I vote for this. My K390 version is a slicing piece of art.
Mine has a fob that my pinkie thinks makes a solid 4 finger grip. Rides in pocket with no clip and the fob keeps it in place.

I have both the dragonfly and lil native and I’d choose the lil native wharncliffe. Really. Delica wharncliffe over both of those though.
