A medium folding pocket knife from Honey Badger Knives, the Johannesburg-based knife brand, with a blue handle. The Wharncleaver blade has a straighter cutting edge and a broad, flat-ground blade that borrows from a cleaver. It slices well and its blunter tip lowers the chance of an accidental puncture, which suits everyday carry, food prep at the braai, opening boxes and general cutting. The blade is D2 tool steel, a high-carbon steel known for good edge retention, 3.0mm thick. It opens with a flipper tab and runs on two opposing roller bearings holding 18 ball bearings, for a smooth, quick action. The handle is fibre-reinforced nylon (FRN) with a honeycomb pattern that grips in any direction and resists slipping when wet, and the slim, light build sits comfortably in a pocket. The pocket clip can be moved for left- or right-hand carry. The medium size has a 81mm blade, is 104mm long when closed and 185mm open, and weighs 84g.
