I'd buy any variant, but it seems unlikely as the wharnies generally do not sell very well it seems.

I voted for 3 that I’d like to see, that I also feel are likely possible given what we’ve seen come out of Seki: K390, PD#1 and H2. I couldn’t choose more than 3, but I’d like to also add LC200N.

I’d like to see each of those hit the Dragonfly Wharnie as well (aside from the K390 wharnie which already exists and is in my pocket now).

More interested in another bolstered Manbug... Still hoping for a KC Pakkawood HAP40 :)

I voted for MagnaCut, S90V, and Other (LC200N).

I didn't vote for H2 as there is already a serrated Manbug in that steel.

K390, Cru-wear, and S45VN.

S45VN is a new steel for me but I’m loving it on my Medford’s.

The smaller the blade the more s110v shines as a sharpen once maybe twice a year blade that is also basically a salt steel. They'd have to ship it over to Seki though.

More realistically since there might be some left over I'd love to see PD#1 get teeth. If Spyderco doesn't want to do an SE Endela sprint I'll take anything I can get, and serrated wharnie manbug wouldn't be a disappointment.

I love Wharnies and the Manbug Wharnie is my favorite keychain knife (and Delica Wharnie favorite Spyderco in general).

That said, I'd love one in Cruwear/PD1 and one in K390. I'd take a St Nicks 4V exclusive as well to match my Jester. And some Glow in the Dark ones in any of these steels.

Carbon fiber and Cruwear, like the Delica variant, and make it a leaf blade.

My vote goes to bolstered Micarta and K390.
Do right always. It will give you satisfaction in life.
