Mine is a Wenger Watchmaker 85. 5mm.

Alox Classic for me. But it doesn't have the tweezers and toothpick of the plastic Classic, so it never gets carried. But it would be great on a keychain if someone wanted just the pen blade and mini scissor.
 
Wenger Patriot or Vic Alox Bantam are my thinnest knives. I can't tell you if one edges out the other, but they are both skinny Minnie's. Honorable mention to my K55K.
 
Almost no light at all here now, but here's a few thinnies. I think the thinnest is a Sheffield-made penknife in Osborn Evershyne steel, 79mm long, and 2mm thick!

Like you Jack I have a fist full of thin steel scaled ,(mostly pen knife patterned) knives, I'll have to see if I can find some shots of my thinner blades.

Look forward to that Ted :thumbup: After posting, I found a thin MOP covered single blader that I'd got out, but managed to 'lose' under the piece of chamois leather I was using as a background! :D Sorry again for the poor pics.

You know a knife is thin if you loose it under a piece of chamois.:)
 
Some impressively thin items on view here.

I suppose my horrible old Stanley knife-blade, lovingly hafted by me with electrical tape doesn't count....:D:barf:
 
My thinnest is a Vic. Baker's Knife,then it's a tossup between the Schrade Walden Lobster and an unmarked mini toothpick.

My lloyd is the thinnest i own,and most flexible,and will cut you at the merest touch................FES

My Case Eisenhower style Pen in green bone has the thinnest most flexible I've ever seen... :eek:

The small pen is growing so thin and is so flexible the it bends nearly 90°, the amazing part is that as thin as the blade is ground, it still had this beautiful swedge ground into it...:)

The thing that got me right away was there were no pattern #s, except for the letters ACI stamped on the opposite tang of the main Pen Blade.

Here's another thin one, Camillus Equal End with NS tip bolster and some type of jigged bone.

This is a very sexy knife, very thin, very sharp. Love the Federal Shield too. :)

That's a really desirable Ike Pen there Ted. Fantastic worn bone on that knife, can you say its age?

Thanks, Will
