I purchased both the drop point and clip point H20 knives earlier and wanted to complete the set. The wharncliffe blade was razor sharp out of the bag (no tubes for the H20 series). I actually managed to push the tip through the sheath. As I said in my other H20 reviews the fit and finish is very nice. The natural canvas micarta is smooth with just enough texture for a good grip. I expect this knife will serve well in the kitchen and possibly with my model railroad work. As usual the service from CK was great and the shipping fast.

I have heard a couple people having issues with the wharncliffe blade popping through the sheath. Other than not pressing tbe knife in too hard, how canI avoid that?

A leather welt is no match for a sharp blade being forced thru it. Taking note of the length of your blade the first time you insert it or wiggling it into a snug position are good ideas. But you can definitely force any of the blade shapes thru the bottom if you try hard enough.
