Does any one have any top views of their knives showing blade thickness? Especially the vanguard. I'm just wanting to compare something.
 
I don't have a Vanguard but here are some others:

119 and 655 side by side:


110 and 889 side by side:



889 and 881 side by side:
 
I have 4 vanguards, two specials, two generals, three nighthawks and I will take a picture or two for you.
 
Here you go. The 192 is the stag with wood insert.

jb4570 how thick is that blade on that 192 if you dont mind me asking. My old one I had looked as thick as that but the few I looked at lately looked thinner.
 
My old vanguard was slighty thicker than my 110. The ones I've seen lately are the same thickness as my 110. Heres an old picture that doesnt show it real well but if you look closely you can see the differance.

Here is what I hope will help you. The first picture is 119/120/102/192. The second picture is 650/655/192/649. I borrowed a caliper from work and here is what I measured: 102/.119, 119/.179, 120/.180, 192/.139, 694/.137, 650/.236 and 655/.236. Hope that helps you.

How about a Vanguard next to a 110? I know I'm a pain. Just wondering. Hey it gives you a good excuse to play with your knives.
 
Someone else will have to take that picture as I am not a folder guy. I guess it could give me an excuse to get a 110. I have 14 Bucks and no 110.
 
I "won" a 110 today on Ebay and when I get it I will measure the blade thickness and get a picture of it with one of my four Vanguards.
 
Well I won a vanguard (2004) Ag on ebay last night. So maybe I'll take a picture if I get it before you get the 110. Thanks.

Here you go kyhunt,

These are the 2005 tracks series from Cableas. They were a limited edition of the 110 and 192; only 500 of each were made. I did not measure the blades as there have been many of those done already.
