Within the next ten years, I will be getting an ASH-1! Oh yeah!

So; how skinny is the skinny one?
And; how fat is the fat one?

IS there an in between one?

I know 90% of all ASH-1's are in Australia, but maybe I will find one eventually <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

Skinny one is .18

LE one is .22

Fat one is .32

I think the most usable is the few coated CG .22s that are out there. My guess is these are LEs that would not polish up well enough so off they went for coating.

Thanks Andy!

I think I will go for the Le, once the time($$$$) is right.

Andy the second from top is too awesome! I would never be able to use it. I would have to buy a white leather sheath and wear white leather pants and jacket and strut around uptown showing it off, BUT I could never use it...

There is an in between model that was sold at shows. Mine is what I think might be a one-of-a-kind model.

It is coated Black with Green Linen Magnum handles.

It is .23" thick at the spine, which means it was probably an LE blank. After the ricasso, it has a distal taper all the way to the tip.

I have held the CG, Skinny and LE and I think the LE and my model are the best. Since it is a tall knife, .23" is the perfect thickness.

The Second as is NOT white... as cool as that may be, it is just looking a little "washed out" buy the flash... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> It is actually desert sand with a little sand texture in the finish. It measures .226 at the ricasso. I have been offered one other in the CG but .22 thick and it was balck with black G10, I should have grabbed it !!!

Here is a pic that may show the colour a little better...
