I have been looking at these knives for a few days and I have noticed some different blade thicknesses. ,32,27, ,22 but what is the skinny Ash?
Also, are there some Ash's with different blade lengths?
 
If I remember right, the CG skinny Ash is .22 or .187. While the LE model is .25 thick.

As for the different grinds, I've notice that the CGs and LEs have a slightly different profile.

As for the length, once again, if I remember right, all skinny Ashes are 6.5

That's a beautiful knife. Which SAR is that?

Really? I thought the skinny was .195 and don't think it ever came in an LE. I thought the .22 was the thickness of the regular Ash-1 and it was LE.

That could be right, I just classify the Ash LE as skinny because it's definitely thinner than a regular Ash. But .22 seems off, I thought it was a quarter inch. Maybe not though.
 
The Ash-1 LE was 0.225, the cg was 0.32 and the skinny was 0.195

I've never owned the LE but out of the cg and the skinny, I much prefered the CG. It was a beast of a knife.
 
That sounds right. My stripped skinny ash is a hair under .195

My Skinny ASH was 0.1875" thick with coating measured with calipers, but slight variations can exist.

Skinny ASH1 (micarta) (Convex grind)....... = 14.85 ounces; .1875” thick; 6.4” blade; 12.0” oal
Skinny ASH1 (G10) (Convex grind)............ = 15.25 ounces; .1875” thick; 6.4” blade; 12.0” oal
