Needs no thicker than 2.5MM

Needs to have a fat handle( wood/micarta)

Any ideas??

Oops damn typos

my instant answer would be a bradford guardian 4 - but they tend to be 0.17" thick (which is a bit over 4mm)

maybe look at the cold steel pendleton hunter in 3v?

After hours of searching, the best I could find is a LT Wright genesis. It’s .112” or 2.84MM. That’s about the thinnest stock I could find.
