Hey guys,

I recently acquired a second shirogorov F3. I already had a F3 in M390 CF, this one is green G10 and Elmax. All the markings are present on both that I would expect on real F3s, and have the paperwork on the second which I believe is correct. However, they have different blade thicknesses. Measured with calipers, the M390 F3 is roughly .153" thick, but the Elmax is .174" thick. Anyone have any knowledge on this? :confused:

It's normal - the bade thickness sometimes different - 3-4.5mm. Don't worry. But.... Take a picture of knives and add in this topic.
