fell in love with these beautiful blades. so the silly question will be unavoidable, and keep coming.. please bear with me.
 
The Model T was a Busse Company Store exclusive. It was only available with a black coating and black canvas micarta slabs just as the Ford Model "T" was only available in black initially. The difference is thickness. The Meaner Street was .22" I think and I am pretty sure the Model T was around .20...in between the Leaner Meaner (around .18") and Meaner Street models :)

It was also a freakin' bargain...
 
They sold out from the company store over a year ago and I've never seen one come up on the exchange or that auction site.
 
Aside from being .20" thick, the Model T is a wee bit narrower than the MS in both the blade and handle. It's not noticeable unless you see them both next to each other in the same picture.
 
The Model T is the botom one. Meaner Street, Leaner, Learner, Model T

They're great EDC knives !
 
There is one on ebay listed as a Mean Street right now.

The seller says it is .22.

Would it be a Meaner Street instead?
 
Jimmy,

You have GOT to stop waving that satin/black paper one in front of me. It's like teasing a lion with raw meat....
