The blade Pattern that started me collecting was the wharncliff. The Case Classic 55 patterns with the wharncliff blades secured me as "hooked". It is said the blade pattern was developed by Lord Wharncliff...Lord Wharncliffe thought up the concept from the want of
"..a knife that is more for cutting, than poking.."
This novel concept later developed in the Americas, with "hawkbill" & "sheepsfoot" blade configurations
