The NKD Wharncliffe 80 comes with a sheepsfoot blade profile. The blade is very well suited for all rough carving and cutting tasks. With its fine point, the blade is able to handle precise cuts, making pulling cuts particularly easy. Its history can actually be traced back to a specific gentleman of the 19th century—Colonel James Archibald Stuart-Wortley-Mackenzie—the first Lord Wharncliffe of England.
