I have a name suggestion. Instead of calling it the thin Mean Street, how about the LEAN MEAN STREET.

BTW Andy, I sent you a check this morning. It's a little different than what we agreed upon. Anticipation got the better of me.

This is brilliant! All Jerry needs to do to stay in business forever is offer his entire line in 3 or 4 different thicknesses and us Busse nuts will need to buy another complete set. Imagine a 5/16 or 3/8" thick BM-E or SH-E. Way too heavy, but would it chop or what!
Oh, the madness!

Andy, get help before it's too late!

I know you will be shocked at this but I already have a 5/16" Badger Attack. It's a fat lil' puppy.

Hoodoo,

5/16"!? Wow!

Was it a special order or did Jerry have one available? Is it made from INFI or A2 or something else?

Mine measures just a hair (1/32) under a full 1/4" and I consider it to be quite thick, but not too thick.
The more I think about it the more I like this 3/16" MS. I have a 0.23" one and, though I've had no problems, it would be a better knife at 3/16" and still be quite indestructible.

Rich, it's A2. I bought it through a shop out West. Evidently Jerry had been doing some horse trading with them (at least, that's the story I got).

Great looking knife! I would really like a Natural Outlaw done like this! ...especially with a tapered tang.

Hoodoo,
Very cool!
