C-25 & C-50 Centofante were the best Narrow Spyders IMO
If they would do a Sprint run of the older C-25 and/or C-50 Centofante models in both PE & SE I think that would truly be an excellent choice for a very usable narrow blade.
I also loved the JD Smith and Des Horn models for narrow bladed users.
But to me the C-25 & C-50 Centofante models were 2 of the most functional Spyders I ever used.

Long Live the SPYDEREDGE Spyderco Hawkbills RULE!!
What is your price point? I would say either the Centofante 3 or if you want to spend more the Centofante Memory. If you are ok with sub 3 inches then Chaparall is quite thin and capable.
Most Carried: Sebenza Insingo small, Chaparral, Modded Southard Flipper, Delica 4, Ritter Mini-Grip, Techno, Injection 3.0
Wishlist 2014: Sage 2, Mnandi, Krein Alpha,

The G-10 Spyderco Rookie (3" blade) is one of the thinnest folders I own. Unfortunately, it's currently out of production but you can sometimes find them on ebay.
here's a link to a thread with great pics of the Rookie from all angles.

In that case, you may want to look a this thread which lists the thickness of 98 Spyderco models past and present.MatthewSB wrote:Sorry I didn't specify what I meant by "narrow", I mean the distance from the outside of the left scale to the outside of the right scale.
Thanks for all the replies!

If that's the case either the Caly3 ZDP or the Delica 4 would be ideal, depending on what you're willing to spend!? :)MatthewSB wrote:Sorry I didn't specify what I meant by "narrow", I mean the distance from the outside of the left scale to the outside of the right scale.

The Sage 2 would fit the bill nicely here. It's a little more slender than the Sage 1 and those titanium slabs are smooth like buttah...MatthewSB wrote:Sorry I didn't specify what I meant by "narrow", I mean the distance from the outside of the left scale to the outside of the right scale.

Ohhhhhh I can't wait for that kiwi!! Want! If they produced it in a SE version I would just. Ohh man Oh jeez i would be all over that knife and it would probably be my most favorite little big knife ever!The Deacon wrote:If you're talking narrow, rather than thin, your best bets would be the Centofante Memory and the Des Horn. If you can wait a bit, there's also a new 3" bladed Kiwi coming out sometime this year.
