Blade is 1/4" thick on the spine at the guard. Full Distal Taper.
Bad photos are below, but maybe you can get the idea.

Already received in Italy (it was a long shot )
It's simply outstanding. Not good, not very nice. Outstanding.
Design, build, balance, finish. Awesome!
Even the sheath is simply as good as the knife, that is excellent.

Please put Robert name near the most renowed today. Or even better don't tell anyone and rush to buy the next knife Robert will put on sale here.

Emanuele,

I am glad the knife finally made the trip. I am even more glad to hear you like it. If I can ever help in the future, just let me know.

Thanks again,

Robert
