High Street VS Meaner

[=MAX=]

Hey All.
Does anyone have both of these blades and if so can you post a picture of them side by side.
I own a Mean street but the highstreet design is growing on me. I know it is .17 thick but I am curious just how thin it will be next to the mean street.

Thanks in advance

Hmm. Which type of Mean Street?? There are so many. Do you mean one of the old, glorious originals -- or perhaps the newer Leaner Meaner Street // Tweener Meaner??

Sorry to ask so many questions ... but it does make a difference.

Leaner Meaner Street and High Street:

Hey Jamie, that's a leaner? How thick is that? .20" thick?

 

[OldPhysics]

Lemme see .... yes, you "got it in one." 0.20" it is.

Hmmm... I have always considered the .20" thick saber ground ones Meaners. I always thought of the .15" saber ground ones as the leaners and the .17" flat ground ones as the tweeners... but it's not really written anywhere I guess... plus there are lots of other variations... some more rare then others...
Nice picture Jamie, but you should show him your favorite, you know, the one with the double-cut finish =)

Thanks for the picture OldPhysics.
I have one of the older saber ground .20 meaners.

Excellent knife! A fine user ... I'd hold onto that one.
