Hinderer makes a nice 'cliffe. Also, look at the Chris Reeve Insingo blade shape, kinda a modified Wharncliffe.

That is sweet too

I really like wharncliffe and sheepsfoot shape blades too. I feel like I can get a really precise cut with them.

I dont know if youre after a classic or modern/tactical, but if you prefer a classic folder and money wasnt a huge concern, I'd get on the pre-buy email list for Northwoods Knives. Theyre high quality USA made and often feature Wharncliffe blades. Theyre spendy though and sell out fast FYI.

I have this as my only Wharncliffe bladed knife.

Benchmades only cliffe is the new immunity I believe. Personally I think thw spyderco yojimbo is the reference in the wharnclife knife

The Gerber Fastball is a smooth flipper, and well-built compared to some of their knives.

Gf got me a Japanese one in the mail. I wanted an almost flat sweep hard aggressive point. Like Bunka. So much to learn I started getting secondary bevel today. Also like tip sharpen very nice when shiny.

Boker Kalashnikov is also a nice wharncliffe/reverse tanto but doesn't fulfill made in USA (I believe Taiwan). Owned one for a while and really pleased with how thin they made the knife leading back off the edge, was a fabulous slicer and EDC.

They all should be like this. It is a great knife. I am very surprised they are still available

Agree, really nice blade profile. I swapped mine for a Native Chief though for the lower pocket profile. No regrets since switching, I think the Native Chief is one of the best spydies ever put out. Wish it had that back compression lock the PM2 has though.
