I have seen designes for tv antennas but wondered if they would work
well for uhf?

Yes, Arrow antennas makes corner reflectors for 2 meters, 220 MHz and 70 cm
amateur bands.

Here is a dual band unit

Yes, they will work. They are just usually larger for the same gain than
other antennas. One advantage is the same reflector can be used for several
bands.

How is "the same reflector can be used for many bands?"

The driven element is a dipole and you use a seperate dipole for each band.
The spacing of the dipole from the reflector depends on frequency .
