Here is a paid of pocket EDC's.
The steel is Niolox which is an excellent EDC steel, especially at the current hardness of Rockwell 61 (tested).
Stock thickness is 3.2mm (around 1/8") but between the distal tapered blade and the tapered tangs you'll have a hard time finding an actual portion that thick.
The grind is very nice and thin and will cut like crazy.
For performance of this steel combined with a thin grind check out Jim Ankerson's steel testing thread. And the Niolox knife tested there was not run as hard as these so these should do even better.
The cutting edge is 6cm (2 1/3") and overall length is 15cm (6") which means the handle is 9cm (3 ½") long.
Either of these fine slicey slicey knives (very thin behind the edge) will come to anyplace you call home in the world for $180 shipped worldwide.
The handle on #1 is Snakewood, fastened with a stainless corby bolt and a .22 gun shell that doubles as a lanyard tube.
The sheath is dual tone dyed with some light stamping around the edges. No beltloop.
#2 is A white G10 liner, followed by a green G10 liner followed by Ghost jade G10. Held down by 2 stainless steel pins.
The sheath was stamped and triple tone dyed with colours ranging from black to purple to blue with purple accents. Also no belt loop.
And here's a quick video of me talking about these knives:
